Hi.
I'm wondering what kinds of anticheat/drm is being considered for AoC.
I bring this up because I'm a linux gamer and those invasive spyware anticheat system sometimes don't work so well with WINE.
Cheers~!

The gaming scene on linux is progressing leaps and bounds and the number of games that can be played (with performance on par with or even exceeding windows) is very high (take a look at https://lutris.net/ for titles known to work in linux).
My limited experience is that the games work fine, but its the known aggressive (kernal level) anticheat systems that cause issues.
Basically if you don't install a rootkit on us in the name of anticheat, linux gamers can find a way to play without much dev effort.
Cheers~!
I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if there's anything further we can help with!
