i really liked stw until they said no more content updates and stopped developing the story :(
Comment on Fewer People Playing Fortnite Is Just One of Epic's Many Problems, Analysts Say
MurrayL@lemmy.world 11 hours agoThat original version still exists - it’s called Save the World and iirc they recently revamped it and made it free for everyone (it used to be a standalone purchase).
Last time I played it I didn’t find it all that engaging, so it’s hardly surprising they stuck with BR as the lead mode once it took off. But my point is they didn’t ‘throw out’ StW, it just got eclipsed by a far more popular mode. Can’t really blame them for backing a winner.

Oh wow, I might give it another shot…
Oh wait, it’s on epic store, fuck knows if it has linux support, definitely has spyware, if I didn’t interface with it before I sure as fuck won’t interface with it now.

I’m not getting the impression you genuinely want to hop back in, but in case you didn’t know about it, the Heroic games launcher is FOSS, cross platform, and can serve GoG, EGS and Amazon games.
I never use it for EGS because I don’t have an epic account, but it’s been wonderful for my GoG library on Fedora.

I don’t know about Save the World, but the other modes of Fortnite are barred by anti-cheat on Linux, no matter how you launch it.

you know what, I totally spaced on that. this is very likely the case for save the world as well, I’m bit aware if anyone who’s played that on Linux.
