lutris + wine and vpn question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 1:09pm

I’m running two Wine-based games in Lutris, with one suffering from high latency. Is it possible to run them concurrently while routing only the affected game’s traffic through Mudfish VPN?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 1:05pm

Hello all o7, recent linux convert here

I'm running wow on cachyOS through Faugus Launcher , everything is working great expect TTS it uses some very strange and very robotized voice, is there any way to change it to something more natural like its under windows??? because it makes TTS from weakauras just hard to understand, thanks in advance!

Valheim Crashing frequently

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 12:31pm

Afternoon,

I recently switched to Linux Mint and valheim has been crashing consistently.

Investigating the player log I see these consistently

When it crashes it involves a segfault, but theres very little information

I added the flag it mentions to both my steam launch and tried running the game via cmd line with ./valheim,x86_64 but go no additional info.

Any help please?

CachyOS 9070XT and FSR4/Raytracing

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 12:19pm

Hi. I decided to take a swing at CachyOS again (I have been on Garuda for years). Here's the problem: On the cyberpunk2077 benchmark, under the same settings, with FSR4 Quality, I get better performance on Windows 11 than on CachyOS. I did follow whatever information I could find to do it (basically pass an environment variable to cachy proton). In terms of settings difference and for added context, my PT game performance on Windows 11 is the same as my linux normal RT Ultra, with FSR4 to quality and FG enabled. Visually, Windows 11 also seems to look better. What could I be doing wrong?

I'll post exact numbers once I'm off work.

Where do you guys usually buy games?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 11:20am

I haven't "game" for years and was really hopping to get some games this week and relax with them during the weekend. Is steam still the best place to get them? I see their sales aren't really that great (like way back in the day) or are there other places with better sales? Thank you

(Looking to buy Death Stranding, MGS Delta, Dead Space remake and maybe one of them new silent hill games)

Should I just switch to windows ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Nov 2025 - 10:39am

Lately I have been started to game casually on Arch Linux and I was disappointed every time I wanted to install a game (cracked or not) except maybe steam, maybe because dualsense doesn't work in fitgirl games even with steam input ! And I straight up can't use any wine version be it proton-ge wine-ge except System (10.19) and every time I think maybe I should switch i spend hours and return back to the same state. Maybe I should switch to windows or maybe reinstall linux ? I kinda like the new windows xbox gaming thing but HATE pretty much every update they do really confused and frustrated. Your suggestions are valued !
