minus-squarenarc0tic_bird@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months agoSure, but Epic won’t let you download the native Linux version.
minus-squareflashgnash@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months agoTrue, I usually find proton works better than native ports anyway though
minus-squarerotopenguin@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·6 months agoI have quite a few games where the native linux build is broken, too. World of Goo came out in 2008, and shockingly still works great today. I think #2 is gonna be great on Linux, too.
