The number of specific game fixes is both absurd and a testament of what you can do when you keep excellent bookkeeping of user tickets. You're bug fixing basically the entire history of PC gaming, which kinda reminds me of the efforts made in the emulation space but at a larger scale.

My favorite part of the patch notes is basically "EA broke their games again because of their launcher so we made it work again. They might as well should add a long sigh at the end.

Proton is not perfect but damn is it ever good. Been using *NIX since the '90s when installing a NIC was a chore. I am just glad I got to see something as mainstream as Steam and Proton for gaming.

The title sounds so funny. Proton tries to expand the Windows games by stretching them. xD I'm just joking.

I'm still waiting for it to work on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. I have no issues with any previous version, but games always crash on startup when launching them with 11 (official, beta, CachyOS, etc) from Steam (native package) in my case.

Edit: Solved. The issue was caused by Secure Boot. It was blocking some propietary Nvidia drivers among other things.
