So... has anyone played ME:LE on Linux through Steam on PC and how did it go?

I bought Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order in the past and the EA App requirement gave me problems. Managed to play for a while, then not anymore, then again after tinkering... don't remember how anymore... In conclusion, I try to avoid EA titles since, but Mass Effect has always been a game I wanted to try. I already checked protondb, but am none the wiser as of what awaits me if I buy it.

So I thought someone here may want to share their experiences.

I'm running Manjaro and only AMD hardware, btw.

I recently installed ME:LE on Linux, directly via the EA app (got that game for free years ago), and the game runs flawlessly so far, so I believe you'll be fine running it via Steam. FWIW I'm also running AMD hw only, albeit on Fedora.
