so i just installed it from the AUR and it works great. Thank you so much for the suggestion. Could you inform me on any downside there might be to wine-ge as opposed to regular wine?
Nice, good to hear!
The only real downside with GE is that you're basically reliant on one guy (GE == GloriousEggroll), but it's all opensource, and more projects are collaborating with him now (like the guys behind Lutris and Heroic), so hopefully if the project stops for whatever reason, someone else can pick it up and continue.
And you can still have use regular Wine in case there's any compatibility issues (eg using the version in Flatpak, or Bottles, or the extracted .tar.gz).
