Yeah this is more interesting proton improvement

In my case uplay works correctly with various titles case: child of light, assasins creed revelations, prince of persia forgotten sands and others

However in brotherhood appear same splinter cell conviction error related steam key provide

Quoting: tmtvlOh joy, considering what the P&P game has turned into in the intervening years there is a greater than 0 chanche this is gonna be a trainwreck. Ah well, may be fun to watch the fireworks when it crashes and burns.
Bloodlines was alright it was buggy as hell at release but then it barely made it out the door before administrators closed Troika if you use the fan made patches which is upto version 4 or 5 something it add in so much formerly cut content and speech plus adds stability and even higher quality visuals. Bottom line pen and paper to fps was always going to be tough one but to me they nailed the feel.

Am glad there are more games coming to linux personally i grew up in the era of doom and quake so these do nothing for me. Its not a knock i just prefer games to have a solid narrative a good story can take through an average game. Now I havent played this but it looks very much like an Fps in the style of no story plenty of bang bang thats cool if its your thing its just not for me anymore.
