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

have you tried running them with Proton or ProtonGE?

Isn't that exclusive to Steam games?

I mean proton is available in the AUR last I checked. Also, couldn't you just use the "add non-steam game" option in steam? I've heard it does sometimes block pirated games, but it wouldn't hurt to try

Yeah wouldn't hurt to have my account banned i guess, nah
