Lol valve. Don’t care about it. I mostly don’t use steam, except for multi players games when network is really needed.
I pirate everything and pay for games once I knew they are good.
I got triggered by your comments about linux not being ready for gaming.
It beat the switch easily, it beat the Xbox easily.
Don’t try to make yourself a victim. You shit on a full ecosystem without knowing and then cry when people telling you on it.
Yeah they probably do, most people just change proton version and quit after trying some common options.
It is pretty unhelpful for non mainstream games.
Proton isn’t event the best option…
You have to look more into wine to set the DLL, tools or dependency which are missing.
For exemple most launcher just need the winhttp component and work well. But it is nearly never suggested.
Some need to explicitly add a DLL and it’s version but same, it is nearly never mentioned.
Edit: I spoke about steamdb not proton db, steam db have a package section which is really helpful to identify DLL.
I ma not telling it solved anything but you have to do research and learn how to use it, you missed the part I told that you have to tweak for some games. And I don’t speak specifically about wine, there are proton ge or wine ge which are options too depending of the situation you have to use vanilla wine, proton, wine ge or protonge and have to change version, it is not user friendly but it work.
I play on linux since years, and it may be 2-3 year since I wasn’t able to run a game.
For more user friendly option you have lutris games installer which work pretty well.
Well, Valve fanboys don’t seem to be concerned with factuality so that might work for you. Hopefully normal people see this for what it is.
Especially when it is windows propaganda, but sure. Enjoy you day :)
Let me paint a picture here.
My main computer is a MacBook Air M1, running Mac OS.
My HTPC / home server is an old Steam Machine, Asus GR6. It runs Ubuntu. It has Steam installed and a library of ~500 games btw.
I play current gen games on Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2.
My only Windows machine is an old ThinkPad that I use to flash settings to my car.
I also own plethora of vintage portable consoles and some FPGA for retro stuff.
But I commited blasphemy against Valve, and therefore I’m a Windows troll. Lol, grow up.

Have you considered addressing the fact that ProtonDB lists about 40% of Windows games as incompatible?

Who are you trying to bs saying Wine will solve the issues? Wine app DB is a public thing, Winetricks use is assumed for most entries.
I’m done, bye.

Sure, have a good day.
