It even somehow works better than native Linux ports sometimes.

What I find even more amazing is that with some regularity the windows versions run better (faster, fewer issues) in wine than on native windows. Used to happen more frequently when DX12 was still fairly fresh, but still happens.

When you say wine, you do mean proton, right? Much better for games from what I understand.

Yes. But Proton is just wine with extra patches. And many eventually find their way into upstream wine.

In my experience not just sometimes, but rather commonly. It often feels like the native Linux version, if it is even available, gets far fewer bug fixes - not like I can blame them, considering the far lower amount of Linux players, but sometimes I wonder why they even bother with it in the first place if they don’t want to bother with focusing on it, with how good Proton is.
