    Okay, if you like Steam and Proton, try the Heroic Games Launcher and Lutris.
    Both allow you to play non-Linux games via Wine.

    Lutris already has user-built configs and a lot of built-in shops which is great.

    And Heroic allows you to install games from gog and Epic with Wine or Proton. There you have to do a little bit of trial and error but can get games you otherwise wouldn’t easily be able to play.

      I’ve had a pretty bad time time to get Heroic to work, but I’m very slow with this stuff. I think I’m a very non-tech person that constantly attempts techy things… And the results are all over the place!

      I’ll try it again soon, but I’m garbage at getting anything Wine related to work. Why I put myself through this, I’ll never know.

        At the moment I do it like this:

        I usually play games through Steam/native games. When I encountered a day where “I have nothing to play”, I tinker around with something on Lutris or Heroic and if that doesn’t work, my will to play something I have already successfully installed, magically comes back.
