    looks at empty wallet after paying for rent and food for the month :P

    continues to choose a paid platform over an arguably-superior free alternative

      Lol wut, my wallet is empty hence why I’m using repacks and my initial post was about the frustration of getting them to run on Linux… So what are you on about?

        DODI repacks are generally better than FitGirl, on Linux

      Hi Hawke, I understand your fustration with needing to troubleshoot things. Steam allows you to import any exe as a ‘non-steam game’ to your library and run it with the proton compatability layer. I sometimes have success getting a GOG game installed by running the install exe through proton or wine. Make sure you are using the most up to date version of lutris many package managers are outdated flatpak will gaurentee its most up to date. Hope it all works out for you

        I’ve got no problem myself, just pointing out that it’s silly for people to complain about price but then use a paid platform over a free one.
