The developers willingly entrust publishers to make those decisions.

The information was added to the wiki by an unregistered user, though most games on Epic at the time were DRM-free. This particular game being DRM-free on every other platform also makes the claim plausible.

Rocket League dropped its native Linux support to upgrade to DirectX 11. If the move to Epic were the reason and the justification is fake, why did the game also drop Mac support despite it being supported by the Epic launcher?

Previously, games like Rust and Valve’s own CS 2 stopped supporting Linux and Mac without any store changes.

They won’t. For most of its history, Russia has been ruled by dictators. Democracy is viewed as chaotic and unpredictable.

Its reliance on PCGW is problematic. Anyone can edit it and there are cases of the wiki paths being wildly incorrect. Good luck finding the config of the Game Pass version of Starfield at this location.

It’s a requirement both on paper and in that, even though Microsoft document an official way to bypass it, they will warn you that they do not even guarantee security updates unless your CPU is supported. Moreover, we know of at least one game, Valorant, that will not work on Windows 11 unless you are meeting its hardware requirements. The bottom line is that installing Windows 11 is a risk.

It’s not even a matter of when. I was recently given an i7 6700K, and no game, old or new, comes close to fully using it, and it’s not even overclocked. If anyone is in doubt about the requirement being artificial, try this CPU.
