    Saying do it without proton or wine in response is insane, it’s like saying “Now do it without your gpu plugged in.” They aren’t native Linux, but who cares as long as they run well.

    The few games with problematic anticheat are a deal issue though.

      No, there no equivalent because windows doesn’t need third party interpretors for AAA gaming software

        Delete the win32 API and DirectX DLL files (which is basically all WINE is replicating) and see how well Windows plays your games then!

          I’ll delete what my system is having to replicate and you do too, let’s see who can run games.

        There’s OpenDX, which seems cool, but my understanding is it’d have to be implemented in the game not just on a system, so why bother doing that over Vulkan.
