Yep and it seems to line up with the rise of the Steam Deck and all the discussion around how viable gaming on Linux is these days. I think there were/are a LOT of people that only stick with Windows due to gaming. Hopefully as gaming support continues to improve on Linux more of those people will make the switch.
I don’t even think much when running games anymore. Even DRM-free games I get from Gog I can just click on and run with Wine most of the time. It’s so awesome.
Sometimes games that won’t work on 10/11 work happily on wine/proton. Fun times.
😂 this happened to me but I can’t remember the game.
Also on Elden ring on windows, any time I exit the game that stupid anticheat window stays there until I force close from task manager.
When I realized Elden ring ran fine in Linux, I didn’t have this problem. For me, Elden ring legit runs better on Linux than windows…
Same.
I only have a handful of games I cant play, and thats due entirely to their shitty choice of DRM… and thats not a big detriment cause that obscene DRM would have kept me away on Windows, anyway.
Same here. The games with rootkit and invasive spyware anti-cheat don’t work, but I avoided those games like the plague on windows already so this just makes it easier for me to avoid. That shit doesn’t work anyway, it just makes people not automatically jump to accusing people of cheating when they get owned…
There’s that and Heroic is doing some excellent work implementing proton and steams stuff into GOG games!
