  It is native on Linux, just like most of Valve’s catalog, so it should run as well as running a Windows game on Windows.

    Some games run worse natively on Linux, because they fall back to some badly optimized OpenGL renderer.

    Ironically, from what I understand (haven’t done direct comparisons myself), a lot of games written for windows run just as well or better on linux.

    DOTA 2 is just noteworthy to me because it’s an exception to the “other than competitive games” exception. And while I can’t say for sure that no one is hacking on there, I have yet to see any blatant cases of it (though admittedly it might be difficult to tell in a game where it’s normal for some players to snowball significantly over others).

      Yes, Wine/Proton translates DirectX calls to Vulkan calls, and Vulkan is so efficient that native Windows games sometimes run better on Linux than they do on Windows.

  I’m deeply sorry for your loss.
