    any games that work in proton will work just fine using proton via lutris.

    No they won’t.

      You can select to run them in proton, rather than just normal wine, in lutris. I’ve been doing it to run games from gog for years with few issues, namely games that are old and have the same problems working on windows as well. So… Yes they will?

          Can you give an example? I’m assuming we’re looking for something that works on Linux using Steam or some other store, but not using GOG - either directly or through lutris/proton. That might clear up what’s being asked.

            Not OP. But I’ve had some real pain running Dungeon Keeper 2 and a number of other strategy games from 1990s. It’s hit or miss. Some work in Lutris, some work in heroic. Some just fail.

            It can be real hit or miss. It’s amazing how smooth it is on Steam.
