From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is there a list of games that run smoothly on Linux without native support? (lemmy.ml)

I haven't made the switch yet, and I want to know if Linux can run my favorite games.

Have it on GOG and play via heroic. I get 80+ FPS at high settings @1440p (balanced FSR), AMD R7 5800x, RX 7600XT. This is on Arch.

I had to use winetricks to install some DLLs to the prefix in order for the game to work properly with mods, but beyond that I've had no issues.

Edit, I just reinstalled the game yesterday. Installed via heroic, set my wine version to Proton experimental. Set my launch executable to Cyberpunk2077.exe, rather than the launcher (launcher was just a black box for me). Opened winecfg from heroics settings for the game, went to the Libraries tab, and added version to my list of installed libraries. That can be typed in manually, or picked from the drop down. After that, the game works as expected, and most mods I tried work (unfortunately, a resource called Codeware that a lot of mods rely on seems to crash my game. However, I only have a handful of mods, and none of the ones I use need it).
