That is kinda fucked up. Understandable though, peer pressure sure is a bitch sometimes. Making you do things you should have never done, all for the sake of getting that feeling of "fitting in". Especially when you are not yet mature enough to even realise that what you are doing is bad.

There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time. in c/[email protected]

I still remember installing the sims 3 on wine. This was before proton, before the sims 4. I started by looking the game up on winehq - the results were not promising. The rating was not exactly garbage, but still runs with problems. Some brave soul had come up with installation instructions though.

So I try to install the game using those instructions. Took me about 40 minutes of installing things like ms c++ runtimes. Then when I tried to run the game? Crash. Doesn't work. So I went back to WineHQ and found another instruction (luckily there were multiple ppl that made the game work)

After following it for another hour, the game still didnt work. After googling the error for some time im pretty sure I just downloaded some random dll that was missing from runtimes and put it with the game. Voila, the game ran! Laggy, but playable. Took only about 3 hours of research and tinkering.

Today? I'm pretty sure I can just download the game and it will run, just like that, no config required.

I was wondering that too. As far as I know, when it comes to Linux, AMD and Intel are the way to go. Nvidia are the ones who generally tend to suck on linux (although I never had problems with my nvidia gpu, its pretty old tho)

Look mom, I'm a wizard! I need to project myself onto the astral plane, to appear before the council of middle management! If I don't, I might get fired!

I remember using bare wine to play games before proton. You would have to go and find the exact libraries needed to run the game, install them one way or another, pray a bit, and maybe the game will run with acceptable fps. If it ran at all.

And these days its just plug and play. Dont remember the last time I had to install a game dependency with proton, from steam or otherwise.
