Me: I think I'll properly sit down and get into some more Breakpoint today.

@gamingonlinux Six hours ago I had planned play some Division 2 on my day off.... Been looking for ways to get it to run since then. No luck so far....
Radical@gamingonlinux Yeah, I've been really enjoying The Division 2 and have really been enjoying the fact that I can just drop into it and play for a bit. Real shame I wont be able to play more until this gets fixed.
73 million seconds@gamingonlinux Was afraid this was going to affect #HOMM3 which I've been playing on my deck recently but I assume I'm safe since I have seen no sign of an Ubisoft launcher while running it.

There's VCMI as a Open Source Version of HOMM3 but you need the game files.
It's also available on Flathub.

Joshua Strobl@gamingonlinux I really wish Valve would implement a policy for existing and future games that disallowed distribution on their store with third-party launchers. Real tired of this shit.

@gamingonlinux that's crazy, only idiots will cry about ubisoft games not working. Ubisoft is the worst company.
Thad@gamingonlinux Ugh. Like I needed another reason not to buy from them.
Lord Kilgallen@gamingonlinux Anti-cheat is being taken care of, now comes the newest corporate fad: Launchers on top of launchers. It's just absurd at this point. Take 2/R*/2K have been doing this as well.

Another reason not to buy from any company that forces you to use a 3rd party launcher, they always cause problems

Atrapado ⬆️🥐🥐🥐@gamingonlinux was about to purchase assasins creed valhalla 🫣
Big_in_Va@big_in_va yes? why the empty tag?
@gamingonlinux sorry to many screens meant to just repost it. Not enough coffee yet today to effectively multitask. 🤦🏻♂️
EwokExile@gamingonlinux Confirmed here as well, sigh...
Ertain@gamingonlinux And it's a day which ends in "Y". So what else is new?
dhbirb@gamingonlinux and this is why we don't buy games that require shitty 3rd party launchers.

@gamingonlinux Not surprised in the slightest. They can barely keep their stuff working on windows lol.
Fishd@gamingonlinux Are you effing kidding me?
I bought (for the second time) The Division 2 last week on Steam as I wanted to play it on my gaming PC, which I converted to Linux last year... I thought I'd support a company that was looking like they might improve their support for linux ... I already owned the game via Epic or maybe uplay... who knows...
All these launchers need to die in a fire.
@gamingonlinux You're posssibly aware by now, but the bleeding edge version of proton experimental has fixes in place for the Ubisoft launcher. Just spent an hour reacquainting myself with Washington DC.
Launchers still need to be put against the wall though.
