Quoting: LoudTechieInteresting.Denuvo works just fine in Proton. Always has.
Lets see this happen.
Denuvo isn't wine supported either, so they will have to make some choices.
I will count a wine compatible civVII as a Linux port.
From November 15, all Steam games sold in Germany will need an Age Rating

Quoting: finaldestNever ever have I visited the Epic games store and never ever will. I resented them when they took away Rocket league but when they started blackmailing publishers to rip games away from steam store foe exclusivity I vowed to never, ever touch that tripe of a company for as long as they are doing business.Now now, let's not be silly about it. Using words like blackmail like this does nothing to help, because it's completely absurd. They offered exclusive deals for developers, and for a lot of developers that can mean keeping the lights on. If you're offered guaranteed money, you take it.

I only mentioned Lutris since that was the original comment, Heroic works fine for me and is updated far more regularly too.

Quoting: JarmerThis is a genre I have absolutely no experience with. Autobattler sounds interesting, but I really wish they had a demo. But then again, the games only $10 ???????????? CHOICES!I genuinely think this is worth the punt. It's so easy to get into and just chill with, since you set it all up for a round, then sip you *favourite beverage* while the action happens. Can be quite challenging, but so fun to watch.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoDepends what for, I use Heroic personally.Quoting: Liam DaweName me an alternative to LUTRIS with the same clic'n'play experience.Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoBecause umu is just an entirely better system. It's not their fault Lutris has been slow to get support and an update out for it, they can't hold themselves back for someone else's software.Quoting: CaldathrasI don't understand why they want to replace something that already WORKS with something that doesn't works yet..Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoCan I use it on Lutris without issues?...Not yet. Lutris is still working on implementing ULWGL. Unfortunately, GloriousEggroll stopped updating Wine-GE prematurely (IMO) so we are stuck with 8-26. ULWGL (Unified Linux Wine Game Launcher) appears to have been renamed to or nicknamed UMU launcher. You can monitor it's status at
https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-launcher [External Link]
Someone else should countinue the wine-GE project.
