Unpopular opinion: if I have to fudge with Wine instead of Proton, I simply will not bother. It's 2024. I'm not going to fiddle with configs, or get a setup together just to play a single game. That's ridiculous. A game should 100% be one click to run, whether it's native or not. and if that's not what is expected in 2024, Linux get it together. sincerely: a full time Linux gamer that is a single parent and doesn't have time to fiddle just to play a game. Wine and most of its front ends need a major overhaul.
