Strange, I thought it was possible to install .Net 3.5 with Wine 4.X.
But it still does not install with proton 4.2 with this game:
Batman Arkham City GOTA
L.A. NOIRE
Starwars the force unleashed

Quoting: NeoTheFoxThis, right here, is why I'm a Steam loyalist. GOG may be DRM free, but they sure are useless for Linux

Please don't oppose Steam AND Gog, they are two games sellers that support Linux, they all two deserve respect from Linux community.

Quoting: GuestNice, but the huge right panel thing is redundant and ugly :/
I think there is an option to hide/unhide it.

For Gog users, Lutris is now the "Gog Galaxy" client for Linux, just click install, for a Windows or Linux native game, and play. Lutris scripts system are very powerful to do more than just install a game: you can even install patch, write config file, download and install third party components, activate DXVK or override DLL... A must to have for Linux gamers.

Philip, could you say me what are you gain from Wizzard when you help Wine users to play their games? Blizzard sell games and make benefits from them, do you have some arrangements with Blizzard ?
Wine 4.4 is now available with more Media Foundation API work

Proton 3.16-8 beta is out for Steam Play with DXVK 1.0 and game fixes

Steam team made big progress for Far Cry 3, the game is now considered as "Silver". It's not perfect yet, you have to disable Uplay overlay and the game did not exit cleanly, you have to kill manually Uplay and some other process. But with Proton 3.16-8 the game is playable in Directx11 mode.
d9vk, a project based on DXVK for Direct3D 9 over Vulkan

Quoting: torbidoI use Dgvoodoo2 WIP57 >>> http://www.dege.freeweb.hu/ which translate older DirectX versions to DX10 or DX11. That could help running older games that don't run well on Wine.

DgVoodoo 2 works recently well when you use Wine with DXVK, I use it to play Starship Titanic in fullscreen with Wine.
But it's not open source and it has less options than DxWnd.
