What hardware is currently supported? Turing (RTX 20XX and GTX 16XX) and later GPUs, with plans to go far back even to Kepler (GeForce 600 and 700 series).

Looking forward to the future Kepler support!

I played Diablo 2 Classic exclusively for nearly 3 years, only stopping to dabble in Dungeon Siege, before I discovered Morrowind a year after its release. It took TES 3 to dethrone my addiction to single-player Diablo 2.

(Sorry, I am not a fan of multiplayer gaming.)

Titan Quest - Can’t speak to this one, as I haven’t played it

Based on my recent experience with the 2006 Titan Quest demo, I have to say that you really missed out. This game is so good that it is reigniting my interest in action RPG games. I particularly like that it is not gothic-themed like the Diablo series.

Based on your recommendation, I will have to investigate Grim Dawn at some point ...

Quoting: dziadulewiczNowadays i don't know should i install this normal Wine, or should i use Lutris? But, when i tried Lutris: there is no "normal Wine" available to choose from at all but all kinds of customised or "unofficial" Wines.

There is no flatpak or a snap for Wine either (if there was, users could run Wine happily in a sandbox without any fear?)

I can't see the need to sandbox WINE itself. WINE is a translation layer, not an application, after all.

WINE offers the ability to create prefixes within which to run Windows applications. Tools like Lutris, Heroic, Bottles or PlayOnLinux exploit this feature by creating individual prefixes for each Windows program. Using tools such as Winetricks (under Change Settings) or Winecfg (Desktop Integration tab), it is possible to further sandbox those prefixes, which should achieve the goal your looking for.

Lutris also has a configuration switch to sandbox its prefixes but that does not completely isolate the prefix as it leaves access to your Downloads and Templates folders open. I use Winecfg from within Lutris to disable those mappings.

I haven't played much with flatpaks, but it is my understanding that if you've installed the game launcher via flatpak, it is, by default, sandboxed already. In theory, any prefixes it creates should also be within that flatpak's sandbox.
