    Dude, most of us have hundreds of games on our Steam accounts with only 1-2 not able to run on Linux. Either you’re a troll or have no idea what you’re talking about

      Those 100s of games need modification or changes to the settings that impact your gameplay. That’s not how anyone should play Linux games and shouldn’t be restricted to because of company being lazy about Linux.

        None of the ones I’ve played have needed any modification besides turning down graphics settings occasionally. Dunno what you’re on about.

        What settings? What impact on gameplay?

        For over a year now, I’ve just been buying games, hitting download, waiting, then hitting the big’ol green “PLAY” button, and the game starts up same as windows.

        The whole point of proton is that it’s not up to devs to “support” linux, it doesn’t matter if they don’t even try to, proton has gotten so damn good at pretending to be windows that it doesn’t matter anymore.

        Even my windows VR games work with it.

        The windows versions of games in proton, sometimes run better than poorly made native linux ports.
