Hi, does the Steam version of Titanfall 2 (or, more generally, a game that goes through EA Desktop) work on your end?
Because it doesn't on mine. EA Desktop launches, then says: "Failed to launch game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later."
If I recall corrertly there's also a home-manager module/package for the alternativeTitanfall 2 launcher.

@haysidney:matrix.orghaysidneyWhat’s the preferred way to install steam? Through the nixos option or the flatpak?20:44:13
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgI use the NixOS option, but I've heard that both are just fine 20:49:36
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.org * I use the NixOS option, but I've heard that either is just fine 20:49:54
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org personally I prefer the NixOS option, since the bwrap sandbox on flatpak has been known to break some games in the past. 22:00:24
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org though if you don’t play any games with issues like that, the Steam Flatpak is an excellent option. 22:00:55

I've tried both since at some points the steam derivations was a bit funny but I'm sticking with the nixos one since it lets me manage proton and firewall settings seamlessly.

@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgI still don't get why it is a nixosModule instead of a homeManager one tho.22:32:56
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgI get that there are some settings that can only be used by the system version but still.22:33:31

I don’t use home manager so I do appreciate the nixos module lol

Yeah, bubblewrap is causing me some problems with symlinks in my home directory. I’m sticking with the nixos one for now

@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org That’s intended though. The sandbox can’t access the linked file/directory if it doesn’t have permissions to do so. 10:20:33

I didn’t give it permission to do so and it was anyway, actually
19:55:05
@haysidney:matrix.orghaysidneyI didn’t have ~/.var or ~/.local/share/flatpak in the list of directories it can access, but it was trying to clobber them anyway.19:56:22
