      If it does detect that you’re running it on Proton, then it’ll say that it is unsupported. >!Why the fuck just Epic can’t fork Proton and adjust it to their games?!<

        Because half the way they operate now is solidly based on doing the opposite of what valve is doing.

        They wont support Proton because its made by Valve and little Timmy hates valve.

            TF2 hats, CS:GO and the scammy gambling sites it enabled, DOTA2.

            None of this is really better than what Fortnite does, and there’s probably no big players in the gaming market with clean hands when it comes to this kind of thing. The successes take all the attention, and Fortnite wasn’t even that big until they dropped the Battle Royale formula into it after the sudden popularity of PUBG.

          I can’t disagree with you
