  Oh how I would love to boot up the original MW2 and feel that old rush again but alas, without sandboxing (and even with) the experience is probably not worth my time or money.

  That’s rather unfortunate, and probably should be illegal that they won’t patch it (although they’d never be held accountable) although I think the fact that I’m using Linux would likely make an RCE less severe anyway.

    Probably not that severe, but I wouldn’t bite the bullet. I think running malware, or in this case, RCE exploits, should be given more testing under Linux Wine/Proton. Also depends on how permissive your system is, I think (i.e. SELinux vs normal kernel, file permissions etc.)

      True, I’d imagine most default settings for most systems would allow a ransomware to happen anyway, since wine can likely access the home folder (and possibly other folders) by default.
