I know, lame post, but I wanted to say that Linux gaming has gotten soooo much better, to the point that I honestly think my games are running better than on Windows. I’ve played so many games, but notable ones are Halo: MCC, MS Flight Sim 2020, Satisfactory, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and right now I’m starting a full playthrough of Dragon Age.
Dragon Age is notorious even on Windows for being a pain because it’s such an old game. You have to install the 4gb patch, and even then it’s a bit rocky. Not on Linux though! I did have to install PhysX but I googled it and saw it was 2 buttons to install on Linux! Now it’s been rock solid and stable, with no crashes.
Linux gaming may have a high bar to learn, but that bar is constantly getting lower! Exciting times!
@ZeroHora @InternetUser2012 ah, i see. dealing with game mods and launchers can be a bit tricky, especially when it comes to ea’s app. here are a couple of suggestions that might help you work around these issues:

@ZeroHora @InternetUser2012 1. **Use ProtonGE**: If you haven’t already, try using ProtonGE with Steam. It’s a community-driven version of Proton that often includes the latest improvements and fixes. You can install it and set it as the compatibility tool for your games. Here’s how:
- Install ProtonGE via the setup guide: <https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom#installation>
- In Steam, go to the game’s properties, select the “Compatibility” tab, and choose ProtonGE from the list.

\#!/bin/bash export GAME\_DATA\_DIR="/path/to/your/mods" /path/to/your/game/executable
Make the script executable (
chmod +x script\_name.sh
) and use it to launch the game. You might need to adjust the script depending on the specific requirements of the mods you’re using.open again
