So, ironically, part of the reason I sold my Xbox was that streaming from Xbox to windows didn’t even work properly.
I don’t see this as a bad thing for people who want it. Steam doesn’t offer something similar to game pass (I wish they did)
meh, i can’t tell if this is good or not
xbox game pass feels like it’s against everything linux stands for
… chaos is a ladder.
Always good to give more access to software. I have no use for it, but I very well could in the future.
It’s also basically destroying Xbox. I’m surprised they’re still offering it.
But sometimes a product comes with free month of gamepass or something, and I don’t fault anyone for using that to game. And if I were going to do that, I’d rather do it on Linux.
If it means I can play Minecraft Bedrock with my normie homies, I’m in for it. Though I can see Microsoft not appreciating an other reason for people to dump the fuck out of Windows.
Willingly giving Microsoft money in 2026 is insane tbh
For people like me who just adore and love the forza horizon series, it will be the only way to play without windows or repurchasing newer titles on steam. It’s a clear plus in my book. Fuck microslop tho.
or, you can just pirate and never give money to the antichrist
Tried. Pirating whilst playing online is quite the tricky thing to do without getting banned. :D
It’s actually a little surprised that something like this hasn’t been done already. Not having Game Pass on Linux was actually the second biggest reason(the first being price) that I canceled my game pass subscription anyway because I used my computer 90% of the time so it didn’t make sense to keep Game Pass Ultimate. But Game Pass for PC didn’t work on Linux, so it was better off just not having it at all.
GPU is pretty much the only way that my Series X gets used. We just haven’t consistently bought Xbox games since the 360 era. So it is our smallest digital library and I’d prefer to just not invest in Xbox or Sony at this point.
I will not be using this workaround, even if it works perfectly. However, if this gets people away from Windows, that’s a good thing as a step towards getting them away from Microsoft in general.
The fewer data points Microsoft can exploit the better.
I know people who are ready to leave Windows, but this and kernel level anti cheat games are keeping them away from Linux.
And my constant reminders that they didyn’t need those games doesn’t work.
