That's a big issue for lots of people.

I will say though that Steam's Proton is amazing. I play Guild Wars 2 and all previous emulations were awful and buggy. With Proton it's no different to running in Windows.

Definitely worth a try.

Guild Wars 2 has been fully playable with regular WINE since launch. I've always played it (and GW1) on Linux, never on Windows.

Not to take from Proton's benefits but this is probably not the best game to give as an example. ๐Ÿ™‚

Maybe my Linux skills (which doesn't surprise me) were lacking. I tired in the past and gave up as it was buggy for me. That said I ran the game on a potato for the longest time so adding in emulation probably didn't help.
