  If your using steam, you can go into game properties and set Proton as the compatibility tool. Depending on the age of the game, you might have to switch versions of Proton.

  You can use www.protondb.com to check the compatibility issues and suggested versions by the community for specific games too.

    Great comment.

    Not sure why Steam Play isn’t on by default.

      You can change that as a default in steam settings for all Games. Would be cool if they detected the OS and enabled it automatically based on that

  Ubuntu sucks ass. Use Bazzite.

    Pitch it to me, I don’t know shit about fuck. I only use Ubuntu because I have for years.

      Not the person you’re replying to, and I don’t have personal experience with Bazzite but, essentially, it is gaming oriented distribution built on fedora.

      It has a lot of stuff built in to help it run games well, including the right graphics drivers. Fedora is one of the major Linux distributions along side Arch, Debian (which Ubuntu is derived from), and others.

      There are a few other distributions that do much of the same regarding graphic card drivers, but built on one of the other major distributions. For instance PoP_OS! (Based on Ubuntu and thus Debian).

      So bazzite is good for running games, that’s what it is built to do, but other distros do that as well, it depends what flavor of Linux you want it to be built on.

  Are you using steam and proton, or Lutris and wine? I’d suggest trying the other if one isn’t working. That’s helped me in the past

    I was trying both, everything was just really bad frame rates and stuttering, and a few things wouldn’t run after installing specifically Linux marked games on Steam. Back on Win10 everything is running like butter.

      I’d guess your graphics drivers are the issue in that case. Sounds like it was probably kicking all the games over to the integrated GPU.

        Certainly possible, I really wasn’t sure what drivers to use, tried the default and the first option from Nvidia and had about the same results.
