Nah. Biggest titles are on Linux now. Won't be, but they are there now. RDR2, Cyberpunk run better on Linux than they do on Windows. Shouldn't be surprising since RDR2 runs stupidly better on the Vulkan backend than the DX 12 one.

All Vulkan games now have pretty much native support of AMD FSR as well. https://youtu.be/kI7XaQhRiCE https://youtu.be/ytGR7JKYhL8 https://youtu.be/BhpaDtUJZWE

There are utilities that can do something similar with FSR now on Windows like Magpie and Lossless Scaling, but the latency and overhead is pretty bad. Magpie performs badly without a batch file to start it in high priority.

As far as Steam? Gaben is a former MS employee and Win 11 is going on his new handheld. https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/9/22616395/valve-steam-deck-windows-11-support-tpm-amd

Gaben isn't dumb. He knows what TPM 2.0 means. A lot more money in his pocket. Not just games, but mods (eventually, because you have to take over pc gamers pc's gradually or they might call out your bullshit), which he tried to monetize before on Steam. He couldn't because the PC is too open a platform. It's also why the UI is increasingly more dumbed down and mobile. It's not about me who will mod it to be more open and accessible. It's about the dumber and dumber generations of kids who won't. I'm a lost cause and they know it. Same with the tranny propaganda. They aren't targeting older people, they are targeting kids-college students.

They don't give a fuck if we hate the mobile style OS and TPM 2.0 has been in the works a long time. The media is just so consolidated now that no one will call it out. They tried this with Win 8. Security personnel in countries were calling out their bullshit. Those dudes have been replaced by trannies by now in every country that had a big enough platform to be heard. https://www.theregister.com/2013/08/23/nsa_germany_windows_8/

Atari founder in 2008 saying TPM would end piracy. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/encryption-chip-will-end-piracy-open-markets-says-bushnell

""There is a stealth encryption chip called a TPM that is going on the motherboards of most of the computers that are coming out now," he pointed out

"What that says is that in the games business we will be able to encrypt with an absolutely verifiable private key in the encryption world - which is uncrackable by people on the internet and by giving away passwords - which will allow for a huge market to develop in some of the areas where piracy has been a real problem."

As I said though they faced pushback on every implementation and requirement so they got people accustomed to it. First the motherboards had it available, then they put it on the MB, now they have it built into the CPU, but not turned on yet in the BIOS and next there will be no BIOS option to turn it off all in the name of "security".

Good luck trying to call it out though. Manipulated forums/astroturfing and moron will attack you. They think it's "security", when it's really control and hijacking an open platform.
