    While neither EA nor Steam ever said anything about support for Linux or the Steam Deck (the store page stated unsupported), it’s still a dick move inserting kernel level antichrist anticheat MONTHS after release, altering the deal and making the product a security and privacy nightmare!

    Also a really bad business decision to scare future buyers away, with Linux gaming gaining traction thanks to Steam Deck and the likes.

    I personally won’t buy anything from EA going forward and stick to my statement from the games Steam forum:

    Another reason to just wait before buying a game, especially from large corpo publishers like EA!
    Releasing unfinished, buggy games for prices north of 60 bucks AND “altering the deal” MONTHS later, rendering the product either unplayable or making it a security and privacy nightmare, is a big, BIG pile of BS!

    Don’t let the FOMO get you, learn from this.
    Make your voices heard and place an appropriate review!

    And by all means: try to get a refund!

    …or this WILL happen again!
