Linux Support?
Will the EA Desktop have a Linux version available? If not will it at least be easier to run under a WINE prefix as Origin had a tendency to break whenever an update occured.

@Wolfsite How many games do you know that are made under Linux? Origin and EA Desktop are gaming platforms. No games - no operating system support.
Много ли вы игр знаете, которые делают под Linux? Origin и EA Desktop - игровые платформы. Нет игр - нед поддержки операционной системы.

I have not seen any announcements regarding other operating systems than Windows. As for how well the Windows version runs on Linux someone will probably have to test it.

Linux is PC. So it should work on my PC right? or do you mean Windows? Because that's a whole other thing.
You know nobody games on Mac, yet you support Mac before Linux, the only reason i have any EA games at all right now is because your back on Steam (I stopped using EA completely when you dropped steam), i haven't owned a EA game for years. I used to be a huge Fifa nerd owned every EA game that came out, but lack of Linux support and bad practices made me not want to use anything EA at all. If I am like this then how many other thousands ditched you.
This is the same for Linux users. People will use it when you offer it, you know how easy it is to build a Linux client to manage games, its lazy, i could literally develop a better platform in a week, that would put your launcher to shame, and it would be built to compile on all platforms.
Its ridiculous you call your self a platform yet you are only on 1 OS, games are on 1 OS, your launcher is 1 OS and nobody cares about gaming on mac.why havent ea anusnt it the steam deck is rely good and i want to play all my ea play games
I totally get where you're coming from, wanting to play all your EA games on the Steam deck. Unfortunately, it seems like EA hasn't fully supported Linux yet, which is a bummer. But don't worry, there's still hope for you to enjoy your fave games on your Steam deck. Have you heard about ELS? It's a program offered by tuxcare.com that helps extend the support for Linux distros, so you can keep using them for longer. This might be an option for you to get the support you need to boot into your external hard drive. It's always frustrating when you have a piece of tech that you're excited to use, but it's not working the way you want it to.
