Well, there are games you can't play on current Windows. Like I couldn't get Fahrenheit work on it at all. On Linux it worked first try no modifications.
Probably not as many as 20% of games, though.
Haven't played Fahrenheit in forever (not since it was Indigo Prophecy on the US Steam release), but never had issues. Is it having problems with more modern Windows versions now?
Yep, just couldn't make it run on Win11 last time I tried, nor Win10.
Both the normal and remastered just couldn't run well.
Ah, bummer. Well as long as it can run on Proton, I guess there's no loss for me anyhow. But always a bad sign when newer OSes fail to support older games.
