Hello everyone, here’s the start of what I’m compiling—my goal is to gather a thorough list of what functions well and what doesn’t with Proton, based on my own tests and contributions from others. Keep in mind there’s no assurance that what works for one person will work for you. I have three gaming PCs with varying specs, which has led to inconsistent results across different titles.
Please note: if you encounter issues, make sure your drivers are current. See the bottom of this post for instructions.

They added stalker, Battlefront 2, and Dark Crusade. That’s everything I wanted! Switching to Linux gaming is a no!
