    The Finals works on Linux!

    In other news, I got a message saying I was banned from The Finals for playing on Linux.

        I know that’s a turn-of-phrase but it’s their game so they can do what they want.

        It probably trips some EAC flag because it realizes something is “amiss”. Id guess going through proton might behave a little differently and they think you are cheating or installing hacked dlls or something so they ban.

        I know when other games have caught a wave of Linux users in bans they reverse them in time.

        It said I could reach out to support but I was hopping off and it didn’t give me any links or anything actionable in the message. So I guess I can go hunt down the support info and complain.

        If I don’t get unbanned, oh well. I guess I won’t play that game anymore. Its not like I spent any money on it and my time invested in about an hour at this point.
