GE-Proton 10-27 brings fixes for Star Citizen, The First Descendant and more tweaks

The popular community-made compatibility layer GE-Proton version 10-27 is out now with the usual assortment of game fixes and other improvements.

Make sure you check out the GamingOnLinux explainer on the different Proton versions and the GamingOnLinux guide to install GE-Proton to get started with it. You generally only need GE-Proton for very specific games as it's best to stick with Valve's official Proton.
