      So many games work on Proton/Wine these days, it’s not really surprising anymore.

      Nowadays you have a huge chunk of games being built on massively popular engines like Unity and Unreal, making it much easier to support/optimise for.

      Another big point is that you’re not developing exclusively against DirectX. Vulkan is very popular, and both APIs are frequently supported by game engines. This introduces some “good habits”, in that it forces the devs to think about compatibility from the get go, instead of trying to come up with shady tricks to get one or two extra fps that only work in specific conditions and crash the game otherwise.

          Yes, I’m referencing PCMR. And I think it’s a fucked up term, and gamers shouldn’t be proud of it.

            Well, wasn’t it originally meant to make fun of them? Gamers ofc being dumb as bricks did not get it and adopted the term.

              imho, who the fuck cares? How did we even get on this topic in the first damn place? Nobody mentioned it until the guy bitching mentioned it.

              Constantly obsessing over the way things are worded is a game for crybullies who perpetually play victim so they can feel righteous about themselves. PCMR all the way.
