    Not a single commercial game runs as well natively as it does through Proton.

    It’s funny when people like you make such statements because someone needs to literally name just a one commercial game and you’re already being proven a liar. OK, I start: Selaco.

    But the sad reality is that it costs money to maintain software.

    So what? They should stop taking money for unmaintained games then.

      The guy said he bought games, and those don’t work as well natively. You can list games all you want, if he didn’t buy them it won’t change his experience.

      Yeah, fuck those Linux users! Only sell those games to Windows users! That will help Linux market share :)

        No, he didn’t say “those”. He made a statement about commercial Linux games in general (edit: in a separate paragraph).

        if he didn’t buy them it won’t change his experience.

        Shouldn’t make a generalized statement like that then.

        Yeah, fuck those Linux users! Only sell those games to Windows users!

        No idea how you get to that from my statement that’s advocating to make unmaintained games free. 🤷

          When a normal person talks about a topic, they don’t have to continuously clarify that they still talk about the same topic, it’s assumed.

          He mentioned that he has a bunch of Linux native games. The commercial ones run worse compared to running under Proton. This isn’t complicated. Accept that you misunderstood and move on.

            It’s a new statement in a new paragraph.

            Accept that you misunderstood and move on.

              What is a new statement in a new paragraph? You didn’t reference anything specific in your paragraph, so I have no idea what you’re talking about.

              Accept that you misunderstood and move on.

              Accept what? Move on from what? You’re making no sense.
