I see the same developers have another free game called The Terrible Old Man; anyone tried that one with Proton?

I'm not a big fan of the art style, but the reviews are positive.

Quoting: fleskI'm not a .NET developer, so I'm not an authority on the subject, but I know our Microsoft teams are developing most of their applications with .NET Core deployed on Linux these days, so I assume it has most/all of the features that .NET has.Not all the way there yet, but they are getting much closer. The current Windows-only .NET is going away with the next, fully cross-platform, release:

Quoting: pskosinskiThey label the base game that way now, but it's not the bundle. You still have to upgrade to get the rest.Quoting: PhlebiacIt's only the base game, not the definitive edition bundle.After activating key on Steam it says that's Definitive Edition.
Quoting: pskosinskiMaybe worth mentioning: even that Humble says Blasphemous is available only for Windows, one can install it with one click on Steam client, so probably it's on Steam's whitelist of games which can be run through Proton without issues. I was surprised.It doesn't list Proton in the Steam client, so it must be the native version they have been testing.

Quoting: bacattasteam keys ?Yes, they still are (mostly) Steam keys. Sometimes there is also a DRM-free download also, and if the game isn't on Steam at all it's usually a DRM-free download (with occasional exceptions that are well noted, like Overwatch).
Quoting: bacattaShadow of the Tomb Raider as a Linux version or is it only the "definitive edition" ?It's only the base game, not the definitive edition bundle.

Quoting: PangaeaI'd definitely welcome a DRM Free competitor that cares about Linux. I loved GOG back in the days, but they have changed a lot since then, so there is less reason to be faithful. Probably the only reason they began with Linux at all was that Steam did it, and they've been dragging their feet about it ever since.They dragged their feet from the start:
