I've been meaning to get a Linux VM spun up for testing games. I gather that I'll have some issues (i.e. blockers) with multi-player games and cheat-prevention, but I'd just as soon play single player games anyway.

I've been a Linux/Unix admin for 25+ years so I've no excuse other than convenience. But I'm done.

    Thanks for posting this, I didn't realise how many of my most played games have issues, or are unplayable, according to Proton DB. I forgot that it was effectively impossible to play a huge number of multiplayer games with anticheat/whatever stuff.

    Again though, appreciate it!

    I'd recommend the other way around; Windows in a VM for the vew games that don't work on Linux.
