Hello, the only thing from stopping me to fully use Manjaro as my primary daily OS is that pirating on linux is inconvenient. When i install pirated games on Linux they must be really lightweight to support, like Undertale or Papers Please, because WINE uses Vulkan graphics and they are fucking terrible on slightly more heavy games like superhot and shit, this entails having bad frame rate like 20 fps (unplayable). To whoever is using Linux and also pirates games on daily basis, do you also have the same problem? Is there any solution you could suggest me? Thank you

    Thank you guys for your answers and advices, i’ve found a solution thanks to the user named Monologue. An effective and simple solution that i’ve never thought about since concerned about risking a ban (not the case), and it is to simply add in steam the pirated .exe game file through the “add a non-steam game” button. This resolved the issue about implementing Proton into my wine build, which is very risky and complicated, by executing the game directly on steam. Couldn’t give a fuck about the downvotes too

      The downvotes are deserved tho. Blaming poor performance on a low-level graphics API that’s specifically designed to outperform Direct3D and OpenGL is about as ignorant as it gets. Not to mention that Vulkan also runs on Windows.
