Adding Linux/macOS players
For the most part, a lot of people play on Windows and I get that. I'm glad you're using something that works for you. I've just switched to Ubuntu 19.04 over some recent developer changes to Windows which has resulted in most of my Windows builds to remain unstable and/or a real pain to use. If anything, could September open up the possibility of Destiny 2 coming to Linux/Mac as this would also open a user-base if Bungie intends to stick with switching to Steam. I get that Battle.net may have had some restrictions on content that was to be posted (it only officially supports Windows), but Steam supports Linux and Mac. I'm personally only asking for Linux, but for the most part Mac would likely work with a few minor changes as well, which could open up an entirely different player-base and increase revenue too..
TL;DR: It's just a thought, but can we actually support Linux and/or Mac with the September release or shortly thereafter now that Destiny is moving to Steam?

Edited by FluxApexHype: 7/19/2019 6:16:50 PMOne thing you can try, download windows 10 pro for free from microsoft (If you are willing to put up with a small activate windows watermark in the bottom right.). DO NOT apply any updates after install. Disable automatic updates in services. The default win10 pro install does not have the update remediator that turns the crap back on. Then install what ever individual update files you need directly. Takes a little time but it was the onyl way I could get my system stable with all of my CAD software and a geforce card. Also, Destiny 2 runs great in wine, however, Bungie will also ban you for some weird reason. I guess it shows as network manipulation or something on their end. So hopefully they will make a change soon.
