ISoloxI know a lot of you don’t care if these games run or not, but really does suck they don’t. I’ve talked to quite a few people that wouldn’t switch to Linux because X game doesn’t run on it.
Mechwarrior 2 Titanium trilogy, arguably the best games EVER MADE (fight me, wetnose) doesn’t really run on anything beyond Windows 2000. I simply refuse to update to any OS that doesn’t retain the functionality of my games.
Because I don’t really run Windows 2000 on my main machine. It was sarcasm.
Plus… Running mint on my main, and I’ve tried a couple of emulators and VMs to try to run MW2 and none of them do a good job of it, especially if you want to use a controller or joystick. Frankly, If I had a real heavy hankering for my vintage games, I’d just build an airgapped legacy system specifically for running that game.
L3sAgreed, I switched my gaming rig to Linux for 6 months and was so excited to get things working. Went back to windows on it because I kept going to play with friends, and would often have to mess with Proton versions (again) to get the game working.
I really enjoy the Grounded games, so when Grounded 2’s early access was about to release I switched back to avoid dealing with those issues.
Still rocking Linux on my non-gaming devices though, aside from SteamDeck.

Shame.

What would you recommend I do so that I wouldn’t have ran into those issues? Suck it up and keep dealing with the headaches?
I’m no fan of Windows either, but it lets me play games when I want to play them.
Both Grounded games are listed as Gold on ProtonDB, just FYI
And other people will always come up with a reason you need to leave what you have even if it satisfies your need.
