This is why native support still matters. Anything not supported can pull the rug out from under you at any time.
Except for when glibc updates and breaks games with native support (but not the ones running through a compatibility layer). Although that definitely happens way less than devs purposefully pushing changes that break on Linux.
Yeah, games through Proton are a bit like containerized apps, you get everything you need to run them in the Proton package.
It looks like that got fixed anyway.
I'm not following your argument. You're perfectly capable of having the rug pulled out from under you with a native Linux build too.
