Are gog versions of games that retroactively ban linux users able to be played on linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 3:07pm

Now im not sayin the online portions of course, i mean their respective singleplayer modes like battlefield 4/1/5 and such, or is it hard coded across all platforms for the anti cheat as a requirement to boot the exe? as from what i hear gog allows players to launch their games with drm free no matter what

Want to move to Linux but worried about games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 1:51pm

Hello, I have decided to switch to Linux mint (windows 11 was starting to piss Mr off compared to how nice windows 10 was) but I'm worried about launching steam games. I know about proton and most games I play have native Linux support, but I play a lot of warframe and after searching it I found some people have errors when playing. Does any have any experience with warframe on linux and If so how well does it work?? And how do I get it working on steam??

Is anyone else having issues with Marvel Rivals freezing their system?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 1:46pm

Hello, guys. My wife has been using Bazzite + KDE for a while now, but recently (around 2 weeks or so) she's been having issues with Marvel Rivals. She's tried a few Proton builds (Experimental, GE, and CachyOS), but for some reason, the game freezes her system after a while (2+ matches some times takes a little more time). I wasn't able to find anything related to drivers via journalctl, so I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has experienced this issue.

Edit: She's using an AMD GPU.

ZZZ Performance issues

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 1:28pm

aight so i got ZZZ up and running on lutris with the hoyoplay client, and i mean sure the game does look good, but its nothing insane, changing the rendering option from 1.0 to 0.8 helps, but then the game looks bad, i think it should run much better without resorting to the settings too much

specs are: asrock challenger rx 6600 8GB ryzen 5 5500 8GB ddr4 2133mhz game is installed on a hard drive

so has anyone else gotten consistent, above 60fps performance with similar specs or is the game just poorly optimized?

Choppy framerate in Cyberpunk 2077 when using Nvidia Frame Generation.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 12:37pm

Sorry for the cut video, OBS is another issue I’ll have to solve later on linux. As you can see in the video, I’m experiencing a strange problem with choppy frames, but only when frame generation is enabled in Cyberpunk 2077. The issue is exclusive to Cyberpunk, it works as expected in The Witcher 3, Indiana Jones and other titles.

Things I’ve already tried:

  • Different distros (Linux Mint and now Arch with Omarchy flavor);
  • Different GPU drivers (started around version 575 I think);
  • Different Cyberpunk builds (Steam and GOG versions);
  • Switching between HDMI and DP cables;
  • Enabling and disabling VRR in both system and monitor settings;
  • Torturing LLMs with the same question with no luck.

So you guys are my last hope to solve this.

FSR and Linux - Please Explain

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 12:36pm

Could someone explain simply the situation with FSR / FSR 3 and Linux implementation and how to enable / check it's working.

If understand Steam has FSR 1 already implemented through proton but for FSR 3 this isn't a system wide option it has to be implemented on a game by game basis and the game has to support it?

I only ask because playing STALKER 2 on steam with experimental proton the FSR 3.1 option is greyed out and I wondered how to enable it?

Now, to be fair I'm getting 70fps on ultra settings while running on a 3840x1600 resolution ultra wide but I'm concerned with GPU temps and how to scale things back a bit.

Do I need anything more than latest mesa drivers to implement FSR 3.1? Do I need GE version of proton or anything else for example? Are there specific launch commands in steam I need to enter for each game? I can't seem to find a simple guide that covers this.

Current system:

Fedora KDE 42 Sapphire NITRO+ Radeon RX 907O XT Ryzen7 7800X3D Mesa version 25... Something (can't remember!)

Any guidance greatly appreciated.

Wuthering Waves cannot login because I can't accept on the Terms of Service window

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 12:18pm

Hi guys! It's my first time asking here so be gentle with me. So about a month ago I was trying to run wuwa on linux. It gets me pass through the login and even got in game. I wasn't satisfied with the performance (stuttering and lagging), when I tried it on windows it runs buttery smooth, well at least on my hardware. So I back into windows for a while, only for wuwa.

Today, I want to give it a shot one more time but I stumbled into different issue. When I was about to login, I cannot accept the Terms of Service screen because it shows nothing. I tried to click the close button but it asks me to login again (of course). So does anybody has the same issue with me? And maybe if somebody has the workaround please tell me. Thanks!

My setup:

OS: latest NixOS with latest Hyprland
Runner: Bottles with Proton-GE 10-17
Hardware: ASUS TUF A15 FA506IC (Ryzen 7 4800H, RTX3050, 32GB RAM)

This is the blank screen that I'm talking about

fedora gaming and dualboot

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 10:52am

So, after finally getting my thinkpad for university I got in love with fedora workstation its just so so much better than windows. Now that the last good OS win 10 is dying I decided to also use fedora on my desktop, but I have some questions:

  1. ⁠I use an AMD gpu is fedora good with it and with the amd drivers
  2. ⁠i play valo and fc26. luckily i have 3 ssds in my pc. will there be any problems if i use windows on my slower ssd and linux on the faster ones. EDIT: I would use fedora mainly for coding stuff etc but also light gaming like( terraria especially with mods, minecraft, older nfs like mw underground) will they work on linux as good as they did on windows?

Fast scrolling not registered??

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 10:47am

I bind my scroll wheel up and down to left and right click (i have a normal profile too) for the games I play, and on my windows laptop it works perfectly, not slow not delayed, perfectly fine.
On my main machine, running Nobara, when i try to scroll fast, i get significantly less clicks registered, and each time i start scrolling my pc again registers much fewer clicks.

I did a quantitative test on CPStest.org and on windows i can consistently hit 13+ cps up to 28, scrolling as fast as i can. On Nobara, that same method peaks at less than 5 cps.

Is there some kind of system setting or input preference or mouse driver thats causing this? I turned off smooth scrolling and nothing changed.

Need help installing a mod on Heroic game launcher

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Oct 2025 - 10:41am

Bought Battletech from GoG back when I still used Windows and now that I'm using Linux I've been installing GoG games through the Heroic launcher. I'm still learning how things work on Linux so certain instructions go over my head. I'm trying to install ModTek following these instructions from the Github (https://github.com/BattletechModders/ModTek/blob/master/INSTALL.md) and extracted the zip into the game folder. The second step is where I have issues:

I don't know what this means. Do I run a terminal command or are these launch options? And i so how do I add them in Heroic since it doesn't do launch options the same way steam does?
