Wait, why not? I've been doing this for a few games so I can play on Linux or boot to Windows and play there if I need more reliable remote play or better performance. I haven't had any major issues, just annoying occasional proton reinstallation when I'm in Linux.

Wait a minute, Proton didn't shit the bed when you run games off of NTFS? Did you happen to set permission masks or smth?

I run overwatch and rdr2 from ntfs partition with no problems. I just created a symlink from the default install path.
