    Crap games apart (LOL is a good name for it), the only reason because Windows is better for games is that most games in the market are Windows only, no other reasons. But this is currently changing with more and more games also for Linux. Worst gaming platform is still Apple.

    Anyway, at least

      If I ever get off my ass and make that game I am going to rub my nipples and respond every time a mac user sends in a support ticket asking why their game isn’t working with “because it’s a mac”

      Do play Legends of Runeterra. It’s a charming, friendly and easy to pickup collectible card game set in the world of LoL with ZERO abusive practices. Enjoy PvP/Ranked ladder while you can, because the lack of dark patterns means it made less money than they expected, so some features were shelved and more things may be removed in the future.

    Anyway, almost the only game I play in spare times since years, is The Dark Mod, it’s free and works fine in Linux, Windows and even in Mac (using PlayonMac).

        It is, without a doubt one of the best free games you can find, apart with a friendly community for the support and a complete Wiki with step by step tutorials for creating own missions. A game to enjoy for many years. Walkthroughs of all missions in YT in the case if you get stuck in a mission.

    This is exactly the reason I am going to install linux on my main Desktop, crazy coincidence of this meme. The temptation to play that addicting game is sometimes hard to resist. In linux I am more inclined to spend my time on stuff I learn from.

    What if I don’t need anything to deter me from playing League of Legends? I’ve never tried it and don’t want to.

    One of my best friends I met playing LoL so I don’t know if regret would be the word, but… Going to Linux exclusively was one of the easiest ways to break the habit.

    I once visited a friend’s house and when I saw their computer’s desktop I dragged LoL to the trash bin and they didn’t even try to stop me.
