Pirated games or games downloaded off itchio mostly
Can’t you just download Lutris and tell it to run itch games via Wine? I have done that with one game from itch before but tbh it’s the only time I’ve tried it so it could’ve been a fluke.
Yeah I tried to run a number of games through wine and it was very hard to get anything running sadly
Aw man that’s a shame
Indeed
Itch is a bit spotty if you don't want to configure your prefix and it doesn't work under proton, but pirated games work fairly well in lutris using the official versions prefix
Hmhmh I'll try that thank you
