Even gamers nexus’ Steve today said that they’re about to start doing Linux games performance testing soon. It’s happening, y’all, the year of the Linux desktop is upon us. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

    Linux doesn’t run as many games as Windows

    I’d argue it runs more due to compatibility breaks. Wine just-werks with a lot of old installers.

      Indeed. I couldn’t get a couple of old 3DO games working on windows 10/11 even though I bought them on Steam.

      Work great on Linux w/ Photon (aka wine).

      Hit or miss sadly, but still damn close to magic. I can play skyrim and it runs… As expected, but can’t install dark souls rn.

        I’ve got Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition (with DSFix) working just fine.

        I don’t remember having to do anything weird… Have you tried ProtonGE? Maybe it was DSFix that makes it work? I don’t remember if I tried playing without DSFix first.
