SteamOS is on the verge of huge growth to its player base with the Steam Machine's arrival, and that's why this one factor can't be ignored by game developers.
Its good that Rocket League allowed Linux support with Easy Anti Cheat. I just hope they won’t do a 180 on it like Apex Legends did with the same anticheat software on Linux a few years ago. EA’s reasoning was something along the lines of, its too easy bypass on Linux or something. (idk how that ends up being your legit player’s fault and not the fault of the anticheat software that you paid for not doing what it advertised)

AFAIK, it’s not kernel level on Linux/SteamDeck. It’s only a subset of the protection.
Edit: what’s up with the downvote? Am I wrong? Is EAC on Linux the full toolset?
no, you are right;
of course it isn’t kernel level on linux
