Quoting: pbI love Valve and Steam as much as the next guy, but I'm increasingly annoyed by all the crap games flooding the store, to the point I'm considering stopping browsing it altogether. For people that don't have time for shovelling through trash, a curated store could be a great place to move to, let's see if Epic realises this opportunity.

I thing Valve should split in two: One store for big games and another for Indies....
That is what I do for my accounts.

What is the practical use of PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE

Will that option help with Bioshock 2 crashes?

Quoting: ThormackGuys, could you recommend some nice free-to-play windows games?

Never used Proton before and don't want to buy win games just for testing.

You have A LOT of games to try for FREE.. Right now these games came to my mind:

Free TO play:
Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. [External Link]

Games with DEMO version for to download and play on Proton:
Shadow of the Tomb Raider [External Link]
Prey [External Link]
Dishonored 2 [External Link]
DOOM [External Link]
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus [External Link]
Middle-earth™: Shadow of War™ [External Link] (According to Proton changelog [External Link], it works with 3.16-6 version)

Just go to the Steam DEMO section [External Link], take your time and search... you can make a lot of Protonic experiments for Free.

The final Wine 4.0 release is due sometime in January.

I wonder if Proton will leave beta stage with Wine 4.0.

This project can improve performance on low spec hardware....
And I suppose old games like Still Life can finally work...
And Crysis. Don't forget Crysis.. Try to play that game via Proton with a modest hardware!
