I lost some multiplayer games because of their anti-cheat, but that “forced” me to go through my backlog (including family-shared games), so I don’t mind after all.

Steam games with Proton

Heroic Games Launcher games with Wine

    How’s it been running them? This heroic launcher looks good, time for me to make the migration I think… I’m pretty much all solo play in my old age anyway.

      Pretty good, at least on my PC (Ryzen 5 3600, 16GB 3200MHz RAM, 3500MB/s SSD, and 4GB GTX 1650). I don’t know if it has any impact on performance, but for me it hasn’t had any that I could perceive.

      The Heroic launcher alows you to sign into Epic Games and GOG, even though some games from Epic (like Fortnite) can’t run because of the anticheat.

      I heard there are problems with NVIDIA drivers/GPUs in Linux in general, but I don’t know much about the topic.

        Do you get a black screen when playing games after waking the PC up? I have a similar setup with a 5600g and RTX3080 and heard it was an Nvidia driver issue.

          Nope, I don’t. Maybe in the future, with a change of GPU I might, but right now I haven’t found that error
