I am confused, I have been using lutris for a long time (since I started using Linux), but recently I’ve encountered crashes and bugs which prompted me to simply find a good alternative, and my god do people have strong opinions.

During my search, I found people surprised that lutris has not been updated for a year now, and a lot of saying bottles don’t work and hard and bad and they scared me as I’ve used it and it seemed really good (and things related to bottles next I don’t get). I also found a launcher called faugus but it seems really new and I’m unsure if it has what lutris or bottles have in terms of stability and features.

I am simply looking for something that is still being updated, has almost the same features as lutris, so access to windows games and launchers like epic and Ubisoft and so on, and importantly, easy to manage the proton and dependencies versions. I am currently using protonup-QT to install the latest proton on steam so lutris could use it.

What do you use and why? I understand this question has been asked a lot but the why is important in such questions to understand why one launcher was chosen over the other.

so i wanted to play rdr2 (the illegal version) and since i have to set render to vulkan in winetricks , is there alternative way to do it in bottles instead of changing my launcher to heroic or lutris?

Wasn't sure about which flair or tag to put so I'm gonna go plain. This might get asked a dozen or a thousand times already but there have been new developments in recent times.

Paradox games have provided Linux native games, most notably Hearts of Iron IV & Europa Universalis 4, but seeing that new EU5 has dropped Linux native support citing "increased work on support and development of Proton" which I think is just bs and laziness.

With booming success of handhelds running Linux and upcoming Linux consoles by Valve (Steam) it actually surprises me that lots of new games don't have either Native nor somewhat good Proton support (mainly thinking of games like Call of Duty not working due to their kernel-level anti-cheat) with around 4 million steam decks around the world, that's quite considerable marketshare, if they sold just a million of copies that would be significant earning.

Now my question is, why are investments into Linux quite low from biggest of developers, while small, up and coming developers from games such as Dispatch or Silksong, have quite good proton support and their games work like a charm.

I've been torn between these two considering how well they do gaming in their own way but I can only work with one on my machine right now.

Hello Dear Linux Gamers!

We just released our game Dice of Kalma last week and since some of our devs are Linux users we decided to bring that game for Linux as well!

Dice of Kalma is a deckbuilding roguelike where you play dice against Kalma, the grim guardian of the Underworld. Build a deck of powerful skulls, find synergies, and turn the dice to your favor to escape back to the world of the living.

Hopefully you enjoy it as much as we do :)

So I’ve been looking into Linux and I wanna switch from windows but I’m scared that if I hate it I won’t be able to switch back to windows because I don’t have a physical hard drive big enough to hold all my stuff on to use when I switch. I’ve used virtual machines and like them but I need some advice on what distributions are the most user friendly for customization but also gaming. I don’t play anything with anti cheat so I’m not worried about it. I’m just scared of losing everything and messing up my pc. I also don’t wanna try switching back to windows then not being able to use the same key if I really do hate using Linux lol. Please help.

I own a steam deck , use the desktop version and now i download bazzite ( because people said it the same as steam os) on my pc. Why? Because i kinda give up with windows. I still a beginner but kinda familliar in linux.

1. The real question how do i download nvidia app (rtx4070 my gpu) on linux. I really need to use the ai sh*t. I prefer my game running in 2k 240fps using nvidia smooth motion.

2. What important app that i need in bazzite or linux in general that small thing that change my experiance.

3. Is there something i should know about linux that probably helpful in the future

Hi!

So this is for the 2 people who maybe attempted to play this mod on Linux. I don't want to start X11 vs Wayland war, please don't make the comment section a war zone. So, if you attempted to play this mod with Dark Souls 2, you may experienced the same thing as me. Performance monitors showing 60 fps in game with smooth frame time, but the game was choppy after you installed the mod. Switch to X11, it will work perfectly with the mod. I'm on a full AMD PC, and i tested the mod in KDE-Wayland. The mod will stutter if you using Wayland, same thing with GNOME. KDE, Cinnamon, XFCE, Budgie with X11 works fine with this mod.

I hope this helped for 2 people at least :)
