Thanks for the answers. I will try DXVK for Skyrim SE because Legendary Edition on Wine Staging has some flickering issues on textures and shadows.

Is there a simple guide for setting this up on Ubuntu based distros?

And also one question too ; is it confilicting or affecting existing Wine Staging setup or is it build upon it but have completely different prefixes , environment etc?

3.5 years single boot Linux user. Last survey on Linux was nearly 2 years ago.

However , when i put Windows 10 i got survey after installing Steam.

Wine ; when i install Steam on Wine i got survey.

Something really skewed was going on survey. We told many times but answer was always the same.

Quoting: fabertaweJust bought this a few days ago from the Feral Store and I'm loving it (as I knew I would!). Using the 390.48 driver as per the Arch repos with a GTX970 (1080p) and it's been super smooth on high settings (roughly between 60 - 80 fps). Some of the cut scenes were not as smooth as they could be however.

Is the beta opt-in a full download again? I'll try it if not.

No , it only downloads a small amount of data. Not the whole game.

Tried it with 390.48 drivers. It runs smoother than it was before.

Looks like a very big scam attempt to me. I'm not using AMD but is Mesa or GPU-Pro stack on Linux supports HDR?

LOL, Seriously? Ok so "all" the games are DRM-Free, cause yeah you know you can download cracks... :|

:Facepalm:

But i agree this debate is endless, we need to discuss this on the forum. (This discussion and all the sarcasm reminds me of Windows users VS Linux users, think about it...)

Well , don't facepalm to me then.

Drm=Steam or another client usage to some people on this site

Quoting: rustybroomhandleBecause someone will "correct" the numerous wrong things you said in your comment. This will be followed by someone "correcting" them, and someone "correcting" them, etc etc etc until 8 pages later nobody has anything to say about the article any more.

It's a religious war - nobody ever changes their opinion, nobody ever "wins".

This has nothing to do with opinions.
Steam serves, among other things, as a DRM for developers that publish on it.
GOG doesn't. In fact, GOG makes it a point to be DRM-free and even advertises that.

Where in this is opinion?
It's not like I said any word against or in favor of DRM measures. THAT would certainly lead to the typical holy wars. But I didn't, I was just correcting a factually wrong statement.

Quoting: LeopardI can play Skyrim , without Steam on Wine.

Quoting: LeopardSee , having all this DRM free kinda stuff automatically leads to a certain point.

Your point being?
I honestly don't know what you are trying to tell me here.

Quoting: LeopardSo , real purpose here is playing games without constant protection measures or want GOG to take care all getting DRM stuff for you for some purposes?

I don't even understand this sentence.

Based onto your example:

I can play Skyrim Drm freed. By simply downloading a cracked version.

I'm asking ; is Drm free means to you freely sharing an app or just being thankful to Gog for saving your time to get rid of these Drm protections?

Because you said someone can download from Gog and upload it to net so you won't need to have an account on Gog.

how you know if the steam version is with DRM? it doesnt have multiplayer afaik, so it probably wont use steamworks and if the developers do not add any other DRM stuff then its DRM free there also

Steam is in itself a kind of DRM.

Not this again ... Can't we continue that one in the forums?

Why?
I was just correcting a wrong assumption.

Having a game on Steam serves as DRM. You cannot play Steam-games without buying them (or downloading a cracked version of them, or using family sharing). Pretty clear DRM.
GOG-games are just downloads, everyone can play them even without a GOG account. No DRM at all (except for the first person to buy and upload it somewhere). You can play a GOG-game even if you did not buy it.

I'm saying this fully neutral, not to judge either Steam or GOG or DRM or no-DRM.

That is also relevant to Steam though or other stores.

I can play Skyrim , without Steam on Wine.

GOG itself is Drm also then. Since you have to open an account on there to access it , confirmation layer.

Problem? :D
