    Nice! Valve has done a lot for gaming on Linux, its one of the main reasons I use Steam.

    Me too! I’ve been using Steam on Linux for a while, but thanks to American fuckery, I’ve had to experiment with leveraging Proton in Heroic to play GOG games. It’s pretty smooth though. I installed Disco Elysium this morning and it Just Worked™. I then went ahead and bought a bunch of indie games: Dorfromantik, Frostpunk, and Terraformers in GOG’s own Sumner sale. Not Canadian games mind you, but also not American 😉

      Anyone know of any games in which the story takes place in Canada? The last (only) one I’ve played is honestly Cross Country Canada when I was like 7.

        How well does https://www.protondb.com/ hold up when checking Proton compatibility with GoG?

          It’s pretty good, but my problem is that if a game doesn’t run I assume it’s because I screwed something up. For example, Synergy, has a platinum rating and it installs just fine, but once started is just do slow for even drawing the starting menu while my CPU goes crazy. Clearly there’s a problem with it not using my GPU, but fucked if I know what package I didn’t install/configure properly.

                  Are you able to pull game categories or genres with Heroic or Lutris? For example, to search for local multiplayer games, puzzle games, etc…

                    Oh I’ve never used it to find games. I just go to the store pages directly. I didn’t even know it had such a feature!

                      I don’t think it does, but I would pay for this.

                              This looks cool. I don’t follow Scott Pilgrim at all, but still looks enjoyable.
