Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.

      I would choose nothing, but thankfully there are loads of fantastic games that don’t ship with malware. I give them my money, instead.

          That took me longer to get than I’d care to admit but well done.
