And yet even with chat disabled, “Welcome to Last Epoch chat!” still pops up every time you change zones, as it has since day 1 of the chat function being forced on users, even users playing offline, sometime last year. And while a bug like that might be irrelevant, it captures the essence of the experience of playing the game perfectly: incompetence and thoughtlessness shines through absolutely everywhere, and nothing works the way it ought to.
I wanted to love this game, but it’s impossible. I’m pretty sure the devs have their hearts in the right place, but they’re not good enough to maintain a game of this type and scope. Even the graphics look like a $5 asset pack from the Unreal store.

holy shit! Wonder if it works on linux for real yet. Ill download it and give it a shot on my Steam Deck again.

With proton, it works flawlessly :) . I’ve been playing it for 2 years now.
There was a Linux version, but it didn’t work as good as the windows+ proton version. I don’t know if it’s still maintained or if it got improved since the 0.9 version.

Sweet ill give it a shot. The linux version had a major Graphic driver problem iirc. the player character was invisible.
