so I mad an account and hooked up my steam account through them , and downloading watch dogs 2
Do i still have to install steam ?
Either way what is my next step? and is there a way to see what is my download progress on Lutris ?
thank u
You can click "Play" on akutris after you have finished downloading the game to access it.
If I may ask, why not use Steam with Steam Play enabled (this can be found in the settings panel) considering the client is a native application. Watchdogs 2 besides some minor issues runs fine on Proton according to ProtonDB: https://www.protondb.com/app/44704.
I typically just use the Steam client for any Steam titles (as it's the more simplistic approach) and Lutris for GOG ones, as they are DRM-Free and don't require the use of a runner.
You can check on ProtonDB or WineHq's AppDB , to see if the given Windows game is able to run on Linux using compatibility layers such as WINE or Proton.
