Steam for Linux

Steam for Linux

Destiny 2 Proton
When Destiny 2 moves to Steam, what will be the policy on playing it via Proton? Bungie currently irreversibly bans anyone attempting to run the game via Wine. Does Valve have any pull to convince them to reconsider this?

I have started a petition for supporters of this cause to join to assist with getting Bungie to change their minds. https://www.change.org/p/bungie-inc-allow-linux-users-to-play-destiny-2

Yehh I keep complaining it is not running with Proton under discussion on every update.
This time they gave me discussion ban :steambored: Once you mention devs in any game discussion - most companies will ban you right away...
To ban from discussion is easier then to respond.

it's kinda dumb. It works on Stadia which is supposedly based off linux. I just don't play it anymore. The game will work. I haven't tried in a while, but I was able to log in and play for a few minutes. Apparently they scan the servers for linux users and kick them. Just lazy developers with preconceived biases.

Destiny 2 on Linux
Can you please tell me or post a link why Destiny 2 does not work on Linux?

I remember it kinda worked on Proton to the menu. Now it just kicks out in 2 seconds. No errors at all. Is it going to work in future? Is someone making it work? I am just curious.
Thank you in advance.

Please see the below information regarding Steam Deck and Linux.

Steam Deck and Destiny 2
Destiny 2 is not supported for play on the Steam Deck or on any system utilizing Steam Play's Proton unless Windows is installed and running. Players who attempt to launch Destiny 2 on the Steam Deck through SteamOS or Proton will be unable to enter the game and will be returned to their game library after a short time.



Players who are not accessing Destiny 2 through Windows and attempt to bypass the SteamOS/Proton incompatibility will be met with a game ban.

Source: Bungie Help Article[help.bungie.net]

Linux operating system is also not supported at this time. If you would like to see this change, please make a new post on the #feedback forum on Bungie.net.

As threads of this topic have historically turned into "Which OS is Better?" arguments and have historically turned disrespectful, we will be locking this thread.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have feeling it only needs like anti cheat implementation if I remember correctly. Sadly mods are like Linux is a discussion problem and there goes all the warnings and bans.

I am just sorry for the prejudice against Linux users. Just be cool about it. Looks like Linux gamers are walking on thin ice everywhere.

Now they get me as bed actor bc I ask questions. OMG.
yes and like I post there. They associate Linux with Steam deck as one while Linux users are going destroy game bc idk what.
if you make a work around they will ban you from the game bc it is not running on windows. Even it is a really nice game, I am not going to hustle them.

off topic - do not react pls
I guess they have plenty of players on xbox.
BTW this seems more battle Microsoft vs everything else. I am just a player and I can pick what is better for me. Check how much is now Netflix etc subscription and how much it was on lunch. $5 for all?
