Samsai (from Gaming On Linux) | "Annoyances with Game Stores".

"I am writing as a Linux customer exclusively, so I won’t be taking into consideration services like Uplay or Origin or Blizzard’s Battle.net, since these have not mattered at all when it comes to the sale of native Linux titles.

I’ll touch up on Epic Store, it’s a recent arrival and I have other reasons to not be happy about its existence."

Annoyances with Game Stores

I’ve occasionally complained on my livestreams about the state of the various online game stores that are out there and how they all carry annoying caveats that make it sometimes tricky to try and figure out where to get your games. However, a recent article on GOL made me decide to write down some of these thoughts of mine here on my blog. I am of course writing as a Linux customer exclusively, so I won’t be taking into consideration services like Uplay or Origin or Blizzard’s Battle.

Proton vs native Linux ports and 'no Tux no Bux' | article from Samsai (GamingOnLinux).

Proton: play Windows-only games on Linux on Steam.

(Complete article via link)

"I have been looking at this movement with a certain degree of contempt and have on numerous occasions spoken on the social media or article comments about why I don’t think flocking to Proton as a solution for Linux gaming is a good idea."

Proton and Linux ports and 'no Tux no Bux'

Note: When I refer to “native Linux gaming” in this post I mean officially supported Linux ports. I am a very staunch supporter of native Linux gaming and have been for years now. Like other people, in the earlier days of my Linux gaming experiences I too relied on Wine and even bought some games to play in Wine, but since the explosion of new releases that arrived to the platform with the launch of Steam for Linux, I grew to rely on Wine less and less and eventually stopped buying games to play on Wine, since I noticed that people like Feral Interactive, one of the biggest porting houses that make native ports for our platform, are negatively affected when people buy games before their ports are released.
