minus-squarefxomt@lemm.eedeleted by creatorlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoIs gaming even much of a problem anymore on Linux now? All my problems come from NVIDIA or oculus BS, but not from proton or wine. Sounds like there isn’t much to perfect anymore :^)
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2 years agoAbsolutely: lots of games don’t work anti-cheat games in general still don’t work, and that’s a massive market some games have terrible perf through Proton That said, most games work fine on Linux, but the ones that don’t are pretty popular.

minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoNo worries. I also don’t play MP, so the vast majority of games just work for me. However, we’re talking about broad market adoption, not you or me.
