S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 GOG version on Linux
The new Stalker game seems to be running just fine on steam if ProtonDB is anything to go by. Nevertheless, I'd prefer to purchase the game on GOG and unfortunately I have yet to see any posts anywhere about how that version runs via Lutris as an example. I don't expect there to be any issues but it would be nice to hear from people who've attempted to play it that way. Cheers.
Should be no problem with Heroic Games Launcher then.
I am using heroic laucher with the gog account and the game runs great.
Alternatively, or perhaps even concurrently, you can have a Proton instance without having Steam installed. Dunno how it works on Lutris, but besides being able to install Proton manually, you should also be able to install a few different versions of it through Heroic too. Dunno other means for that but probably are.
The basic tool is protonup-qt, which will lets you choose which versions of Proton and Proton-GE (and others) you want to install.
I don't know if Heroic lets you install new versions or just lets you choose among installed ones.
About the tool, thanks. I'll keep it in mind.
About Heroic, it allows installing several versions of a few forks of Wine, Proton and Proton-GE included, and it's installed on a folder specific from Heroic, instead of installing on the whole system.
Just download proton-ge and set it to run with lutris.
t. That is how I ran the game.
I usually use the "add non-steam games" utility with the game's executable and then modify the compatibility options of the added game.
i heard it runs horribly on most devices, and it isn't even linux-specific
