  1. This is why games should just be open source, so that anyone could port them anywhere and use them on whatever OS they choose. I think everyone should be wise enough to choose Linux, but some people just refuse, and I say let them. No one should be forced to use any particular OS, and that's why I think this is actually a bad take. If someone wants to keep using an old OS that has better compatibility with the old games they're playing then they should be able to stay there. Neither WINE nor Proton are perfect and I've got several games that won't even work despite being really old and undemanding as far as resources go. I'm talking about Win95 era old. I know no one will agree with me here, nor take my statement seriously since I use Linux, but I feel sorry for those poor Stockholm syndrome sufferers on WinXP through Win8.

  2. @@dreaper5813 Ah yes, the "works for me" argument only made by complete assholes. I'll say it again since you're either blind or didn't read the whole post, but I have games that will not run with either WINE or Proton. So if someone wants to ride that Win95 train just to get their games working, I won't fault them. For me, I just won't play those games. I'd like to go into more detail on what I think of people like you, but YouTube is preventing me from saying what I want.

  3. @@dreaper5813 And they changed the fork, dishpit. Not only that, but there are games you legitimately can not run with either, and they have lists for that on the website. Look them up if you don't mind being proven wrong.

  4.  MichaelDustter  I don't know why you're inserting yourself into the conversation, but you're missing the point. I choose to give up on those games as a sort of coping mechanism, but they should damn well be open source so that I could port them instead.

  5.  @AntiGrieferGames  I mean both, though DRM free is implied with open source.

  6. @Dust-cx8ge It's not about him commenting period, but commenting while not understanding the conversation at all.
