Middle-earth: Shadow of War in Proton. Apart from having to set the resolution in the config file, it has been running great, without any crashes or graphics problems. A fun game.
125GB with HD textures makes it the biggest game I've ever installed though, and that's without any extra DLC!

Civ VI, playing for the first time I noticed I'm way too slow with working through the tech tree. My neighbour was running around with huge death robots when I had just invented the cannon. :|

My theory: Feral is probably bringing the Tomb Raider trilogy to Stadia first, and then finally releasing SotTR on Linux afterwards. What other reason would they have to drag on the release a year after announcing it?

I'm still trying to get in-game sound working in Watch Dogs. All suggestions on protondb don't seem to help, so I'll try it with this Proton update and see...

This article convinced me to get ED, especially since it's been 75% off over the weekend. I spent about 2 hours trying to get it working with the latest proton versions, but that sub-optimal launcher just never started. In the end I used the custom proton version, and it worked right away.
About flight sticks, I use a "Saitek Cyborg 3d gold" (a bit of a relic) with X-Plane 11, and it works beautifully. In ED it was detected no problem, and I could assign all buttons and axes no problem, but the calibration was wrong and kept pulling to one side. In Linux the calibration is fine, but there are no calibration options in ED, or in wine/proton that I can find. Works fine with XBOX 360 controller though.

What a totally fun game. Steam Controller works right away in-game, which is nice. I guess it's planned to add controller support to the menu in the future? Also the sound was set to 0% on the first load, so I thought that there was a problem with the sound at first. Is that intentional?
Nice game - nice price - go get it!

Grim Dawn via proton. It's the first ARPG I've played since Torchlight 2, and a lot of fun.
