Word on the street is that the TPM 2.0 requirements for Windows 11 are, in part, to provide a common DRM platform for all Windows applications including games. Meaning that instead of custom DRM software like Denuvo, antipiracy measures will be implemented as common Windows APIs that take advantage of the TPM to provide secure attestation of genuine, nonpirated binaries. Remember Palladium? Yeah, it's that again, quietly implemented piecemeal beginning with Secure Boot.
Linux will have to implement this DRM down to the kernel level, or it will be simply locked out of many Windows games.
Forget it. Linux gaming is over. Proton for me has been busted enough to have spotty support from release to release anyway.
