> and modern multiplayer games with anti-cheat simply do not work through a translation layer, something Valve hopes will change in the future.

Although this is true for most games it is worth noting that it isn't universally true. Usermode anti-cheat does sometimes work verbatim in Wine, and some anti-cheat software has Proton support, though not all developers elect to enable it.

Arc Raiders is a great example of a modern and popular multiplayer game that works with proton. I haven't heard about it having a problem with cheating.

I think a big portion of that is the rather poorly made anti-tamper solution they are using called 'Theia' most cheat developers are too unintelligent to correctly reverse engineer this kind of binary obfuscation

I'm curious, what makes it poorly made if it is working? I don't know anything about it or the game or the state of cheating in the game.

Poor performance and not super advanced. There are better options on the market that have less performance impact and better obfuscation

I mean the performance of the game otherwise is pretty decent. Frankly better than average.

Could be better without Theia but yeah the developers have done a really good job with ARC Raiders
