Lutris lets me easily install and run The Elder Scrolls Online, so no complaints here.

I like breasts as much as the next heterosexual guy (or homosexual girl), but why must they be bigger than the character's head?

Quoting: lobstertc

Quoting: PieOrCakeCrysis 2 Maximum Edition: Some intial mucking about with resolution and windowed/fullscreen, but got it working well.

How did Crysis launched for you? I can't even see any signs of it launched except the words saying launching on steam and then again I can press play.

It takes 5-6 seconds to launch, and then pops up a dialog saying something about not recognising my graphics card. I click "OK", and the game runs.

Results of testing so far (Post will be updated as I test more games)

Doom (2016): Runs well, although my oldest save game wouldn't load.
Skyrim SE: Runs fine, but there is no NPC audio.
Supreme Commander: launches to a grey window. Eventually goes to a black fullscreen, with no graphics shown and nasty audio corruption. Cannot play.
Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons: Does not launch at all. Cannot play.
Crysis 2 Maximum Edition: Some intial mucking about with resolution and windowed/fullscreen, but got it working well.
Black Squad: Fails to load BattleEye anti-cheat software. Game will not run without it. Cannot play.
Unreal Tournament 2004: Runs flawlessly.
Deus Ex Human Revolution: Runs well, but crashed on exit. Even after manually killing the processes, I had to logout to get rid of it off my screen.
STAR WARS Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast: Launches a grey window, which quickly changes to a black fullscreen before crashing and dropping back to desktop. Cannot play.
Grand Theft Auto V: Launches the "Social Club" window, but there are no buttons on it to go any further. Cannot play.
Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition: Runs fine.
Mortal Kombat XL: Good frames per second, but regular stuttering makes it difficult to time moves.
Injustice Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition: Runtime error while loading. Cannot play.

System
Intel i5-8600K
NVIDIA 1080 Ti
16GB RAM

Quoting: jakobvonguntenInstalled and it's working. This will be the end of Lutris?

Doubtful. There are a lot of games out there that don't use Steam. My big use of Lutris is to play the Elder Scrolls Online.

I guess that my 1080 Ti won't be top of the range for much longer. Not that it matters - it still eats everything I throw at it, and probably will for years.

My sons love this game, although they haven't played it on Linux - yet. I just blew away Windows 10 on my supercomputer and installed Kubuntu 18.04. Next time they play Titans will be with penguins!

Quoting: liamdawe

Quoting: PieOrCakeWhat a shame that this game has been refused classification in Australia, due to "drug use leading to rewards".

Actually

After considering our appeal to get We Happy Few reviewed for classification, the Australian Classification Review Board has decided to allow the release of We Happy Few in Australia!

We went to a great deal of effort to get this decision overturned. We Happy Few will be rated R18+ in Australia.

Hooray for common sense prevailing.
