Nice, this is League right? I have well over 10K games of Heroes of the Storm going back to 2015, all on Linux using Wine. I am queuing up for the next one right now.

See you in the nexus!

I was so excited to have patch notes again.

[–] donio@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Back when the development was still going at a breakneck speed I was always worried that a new patch might break my HotS Wine setup. But during all that these years there was only a single week when I couldn't play. Somehow the Wine stack was always just good enough to keep up with the changes. For example DXVK came along just in time when the DX9 rendering was no longer supported.

Oof. I'm surprised they haven't shut the servers off. I guess first they'd have to remember that it exists.
