I gave it a shot and discovered it’s trash. Nothing works.

For most people it is literally:

1.Install steam 2.Change the setting so proton is used on all games 3.Download/install game 4.Play

I guess there might be difficulty setting up lutris and drivers but that’s something a search on your search engine of choice can fix, or even just asking here.

Oh shit I didn’t think of that. (sarcasm)

Well maybe if you’d added some context we could narrow down the problem. Because on my pc, it literally is that simple.

Odd. Things continue to improve, maybe it has gotten better? The majority of issues/glitches ive experienced on Linux while gaming have been glitches present on Windows too. Out of my library, there are no games that are outright unplayable on Linux, and 1 game that I need to host lobbies to play multiplayer. I tend to get better performance on Linux as well.

I recommend for anyone considering Linux for gaming, look at ProtonDB to see if your fav games are playable or require workarounds. I find it rare that I actually need to look anything up.

Better in the last 6 months?
