    Because why would you when proton exists? I said this at the start of proton being announced and was told I was stupid for thinking native gaming on Linux would suffer. Its pretty fucking obvious now, isn’t it?

      I prefer the way it is not compared to earlier.

      Sure maybe some games will stop having native ports, but a LOT of other games will be possible to play at all. If the performance is the same, does it really matter?

        Oh, you aren’t wrong. But to sit back and say Proton wasn’t going to cripple native gaming was pretty dumb. But it was a /r/linuxgaming groupthink that couldn’t be contradicted at the time.

        I recently played Witcher 2 and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and played them both ways, native linux version and using proton, Linux was slightly better, proton had a few graphical issues. I would say a native Linux version is almoat better.
