1+ For support! This game would be fun on Steam Deck natively with SteamOS!
I didn't get into this thread for a while. I'm glad to see it is more and more active !
Hang on and still add more +1 here !
+1 Bring the Black Spirit to Linux.
This is a game I am really interested in trying but am unable to without some form of Linux playability. I got rid of my Windows partition a year ago so cant just use it for trying the game. Please devs give this a look. Even if you just start with flipping the EAC flag so that the community can poke in WINE and Proton to get the rest working we would be appreciative. I likely would be a paying customer if not for the fact that your game is unable to run on the OS I use day to day.
All that to say +1
I've recently started daily driving linux, and black desert is one of the few that don't work in my library of thousands of games.
+1 for linux support through wine/proton
EDIT:
It would be nice to have it purely so I can run the game in the background while I'm using my linux installation, as I have to run it on windows where I don't have a lot of my stuff at the moment.
I join my brothers above. Every year Windows gets worse and worse, I have tested Windows 10, 11, a huge number of builds, I am disappointed.
I have a bzitz with optimization, I'm trying to make the system work better, and I know what I'm talking about.
Speaking of Linux, suffice me to say openZFS under root with lz4 compression, choosing a custom CPU scheduler in the kernel, using some tweaks from CachyOS developers (if you use Arch, the best result is to use CachyOS repositories), proper tuning, all of this destroys Windows not only in features but also in performance, many programs and games made for Windows work perfectly well in Linux, I'm not even talking about native applications and games...
You made a solid game, not without flaws, but still. Therefore, the Linux community would be very pleased to see such a possibility from you.
+1 for linux support through wine/proton
Guys im with you but they will NEVER fix this because there is no monetization from people on free OS.
Dont take me wrong all they care is more money

you're not wrong, you're just not right either. the idea there's "no monetization" is wrong. some developers have made plenty off of me by just supporting linux.
there is less money in linux than windows, but it's money all the same and at no extra cost to them; they just need to tick a box in their EAC control panel.
