    I don’t like the direction this is taking but I have Lutris and some old games work with Lutris out of the box while they don’t work at all with Heroic. As long as it gets the job done, I see no reason to jump ship for those old games. I do use Heroic for newer titles.

    Lutris still is the only launcher i can get battlenet to run on. Steam, Bottles. Just hours of fighting agent has fallen asleep error code. Lutris? Didnt even have to tweak any settings. Battlenet just ran out of the box in the Lutris.

    Cool.

    “Don’t worry about the code being shit, it was already shit BEFORE the AI.”

    So, anyone know any Lutris alternatives?

      I’ve had a grand success with 99% of games with steam. Lutris is the only thing that can reliably run Battlenet. But that’s good honestly, the more of obstacles between me and wow the better

        I’ve never had a problem with battlenet in steam, just add the installer as a non steam game, run under proton, change the target and environment to the new installed location (don’t forget the " marks around the target), and play.

    I honestly haven’t used Lutris this year or last year. I just keep Proton up-to-date with Protonup-qt and launch stuff through Steam, everything works. Gaming on Linux has come such a long way 🥹

    My god, I only read a few comments and it’s already one of the most toxic threads I’ve read in a good while. 🤮

    Can’t imagine a more dishonest interpretation of the linked block than this post’s title

      Maybe you should, you know…read?

      Thanks for the bug reports!! Quite honestly, if that’s the level of bugs we’re dealing with due to our use of AI tools, that’s a pretty good deal. I’ve seen much worse, so much worse in code that we actually shipped in releases. And no AI was used to create those critical bugs. (Emphasis mine)

    The title is a complete misrepresentation of the happenings. This is, in the truest sense of the word, fake news.

      It’s amazing how many pathetic devs come out of the woodwork to gargle AI’s balls

      Seems accurate to me.
