A guide to Steam Play Proton, Valve's tech for playing Windows games on Linux / Steam Deck

So yes, it could occur that a game that used to run perfectly with an older version of wine/proton starts acting up in a newer version.
Last time i had this issue was with Star Citizen, that wouldn't install/update with wine > 3.19 (iirc) but ran fine (even better) with newer versions once it was installed ^^

Quoting: BeamboomAre there ever any reason to run anything but the latest version of Steam Play on any game, ever?there have been regressions in wine, too.

Seems that the Linux version of Supraland will not be heading to GOG (updated)

Sad to hear that the linux-sales haven't been good after release of the Linux-Version. I've just waited for that to pick it up and really enjoy it (although it's quite a bit lower fps than the demo had on proton)

Quoting: GuestBesides, tests with the expensive X570 cards have been done and it seem the Fan of Doom is indeed running quite often and what's worse, is noisy.Strange, (german) Computerbase is writing that the Fan is not noticable at all on MSI and Asus boards:

Supraland 2, a sequel to the highly rated first-person metroidvania is crowdfunding and coming to Linux

I would instantly back this - if it wasn't for the recent Epic-Shit-Store debacles that burned me enough to abandon crowdfunding...
I'm eagerly awaiting Linux for part one, played it a bit via family share + proton and loved it - so good to know that part 2 will have Linux in mind from the beginning :)

I really think proton is a good thing to help get more people on Linux.
What i don't know is if it is a good idea to buy games that don't support Linux but run with Proton - i'll happily play them if they are in a bundle, but until now i'm refraining from buying them...

The trailer looks really slick - although i did enjoy xen back in the day, i'm really curious what their interpretation feels like :D

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääItch really deserves more boost!true, i always look if i can buy there - but i prefer getting a steam key with it, as steam still provides a "more complete" plattform

Its pretty simple what morale is at stake with BOUGHT exclusives:
Competition!
If bought exclusives somehow became accepted, all the shops would start to just buy exclusives instead of enhancing the experience for the customer - thus in the long term, everything would get worse for the user...no thank you!
