Thanks for posting this, I didn’t realise how many of my most played games have issues, or are unplayable, according to Proton DB. I forgot that it was effectively impossible to play a huge number of multiplayer games with anticheat/whatever stuff.
That’s really unfortunate, but yeah, better to know beforehand.
The really painful part about this is it doesn’t need to be this way. A lot of popular anti cheat software supports Linux, but the game devs just don’t enable it. GTA is one example of these. It’s allegedly just a checkbox that Rockstar won’t check.
I’m sure you know this already, but for anyone who doesn’t: If you want to know if a specific game will work under Linux, Proton DB is your friend!

Again though, appreciate it!

Out of curiosity, what games are you looking at?
R6 Siege, Apex Legends, PUBG, Insurgency Sandstorm (which seems to be an off/on thing from the descriptions.)
