Im mostly emulating now cause of how bad it is but out if the top if my head.

C2077 ran like a slog at best, if it even started, so I never bothered again.

Warcraft 3 doesnt work.

Anno 1404 worked once than never again.

Plenty of indie games never start.

Protondb is pretty useless to me personally , none of their tweaks ever worked for anno 1404.

Anything with Anti-cheat seems to be a lot of work. Granted I only tried Fall Guys and Fortnite. But both of them take forever just to login.

I havent played a multiplayer game for more than an hour in years, but I especially avoid trends like fall guys and fortnite, so it isnt anticheat or anything.

Is Anno 1404 installed through Lutris?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

As far as I can tell it only points to steam, but i tried it on several occcasions, didnt yield any better results.

The version of anno I used also didnt make a difference, from og to history edition, it was all the same.

Can't speak about the rest but

Works fine on my 3070. Actually worked on release too. I'm on medium-high graphics 60fps in 4k.

I have a 1660 super, its a prebuilt.

Good that you can run it well, but some people cant just splurge on an overvalued and overpriced card so an unoptimized game may run reasonably well.

Okay but with a 1660 super even on Windows that game won't run too well. I know its above minimum reqs but that card is old. Even my 2080 TI is starting to show some age with framerates and what.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

just because its not a sparkly shiny new card doesnt mean a miserable performance (for me) compared to the windows counterpart should be acceptable.

If id switch to windows right now i could still play c2077 in a perfectly playable state, if i where inclined to do so.

ITT: People getting mad for saying a 3 generations, 4 year old low end gpu is the issue

I mean, then it's not really linux, is it?

As for the card, I bought it before it became apparent how overpriced it was, and it was a major upgrade from my second hand 970 anyway. And I didn't splurge, I saved and bought what I thought made sense for me, when I could've 'splurged' on a 3080.

on windows it would still be very much perfectly playable, on linux? it was a slideshow
