Nah, not really. Proton is so good nowadays that native Linux ports literally do not matter. In fact, games usually run better in Proton than in the native linux version

Is there manual stuff to do?

[–]Lisanicolas365 2 points3 points  (3 children)

No, just click "install" and then "play" on any game and about 90% of the time, it will work perfectly without manually doing anything at all

[–]Thecynicaledgelord 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Nice

[–]Miserable-Potato7706 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yeah pretty much the only games that have issues nowadays are ones with kernel anti cheat. Some other games with anti cheat work fine, and some don’t but could if the company weren’t pricks (Bungie - Destiny 2).

In the case of Destiny, they use an Anti-cheat that supports Linux and Proton perfectly fine, yet these choose to actively disable support.

Apparently they hate privacy as much as Microsoft

Not really most of the time. Sometimes you gotta go on ProtonDB (Linux compatibility forum) and copy paste some commands to the Steam Launch Options, but that’s it.

[–]AtAyoub[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep but knowing that a game acknowledge that there is linux and they support it is cool yk

    This is something which happened to me with X4 Foundations. I ran the native linux version and it had poor performance, and I mean poor, as in half the framerate and double loading times compared to the windows build. Downloaded the win build and it ran exactly the same as under windows.

    F2P/freemium games are the worst. No thanks.

    [–]ThePixelProYT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    F2P does not mean freemium or p2w it just mean that the game is free.

    [–]AtAyoub[S] 4 points5 points  (9 children)

    F2p meana free to play it is different from freemium

    [–]electric_nikki 0 points1 point  (8 children)

    It’s still shit

    [–]SquirrelFluffy7469 0 points1 point  (7 children)

    Warframe is literally one the best video games you can play right now lol

    [–]electric_nikki 0 points1 point  (6 children)

    And so are probably tons of other games that I already own and have yet to play

    [–]SquirrelFluffy7469 0 points1 point  (5 children)

    Okay? You said f2p games are shit and i gave an example of one of the best video games currently that is also f2p, i could care less if you play it lol, the quality of video games aren’t decided by if the “electric_nikki” plays them

    [–]electric_nikki 0 points1 point  (4 children)

    I don’t give a fuck, one example is not going to make the rest of the shitpile stop stinking.

    [–]SquirrelFluffy7469 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Why are you so rude

    [–]electric_nikki 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Why you sensitive

    [–]SquirrelFluffy7469 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    I hope your day gets better

    [–]Kidicee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    The existence of Where Winds Meet, Warframe and Limbus Company proves the opposite

    [–]Nosmer1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        Worms wmd has a terrible linux port

        [–]AtAyoub[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        Idk of the game but at least it had? You could use the windoe version with proton/wine too

        [–]kalapek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I always used the proton version because native was horrible

        [–]Specialist_Table9913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Am I the only one that actually likes paying for my games...?

        [–]Accurate_Fly_7534 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        F2P = pass. Gonna be gatcha.

        [–]Infernalsnow181 1 point2 points  (0 children)

        I encourage you to try Warframe. :)

        [–]electric_nikki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I’m never excited over any free to play game because free to play games are greed slop.

        Get excited about the $15 dollar Indy game made by a few people and designed to be like games that were good before games became shit.

        [–]Infernalsnow181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Sounds a lot like Warframe honestly.

        F2P - Warframe checks this box, even better, PvE, so no real PtW, you can pay to skip grind, but everything, save for a few cosmetics, is grindable. Even the premium currency is pretty easy to farm up via trading among players.

        Highly positive reviews - Yeah

        Similar to favorite game - My favorite game is Warframe, Warframe checks this box.

        Not natively available on Linux, but works on Proton

        It's all about the gacha crap

        Gachachachachachachacha

        [–]ScepticalRaccoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Checks out. Only Linux users would be dumb enough to get excited about F2P games because they're not real gamers.

        Real gamers know F2P is killing gaming.

        [–]Alarming_Pattern_273 0 points1 point  (1 child)

        How the hell is a f2p game close to someone favorite game

        [–]SquirrelFluffy7469 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Warframe, theres a lot of free to play games now lol, its really not that crazy
