    Have you checked out heroic? I’ve never really used lutris myself. But the devs behavior definitely makes me never want to try again. Heroic works awesome tying into GoG, EGS, and Amazon. Granted I don’t game like I did 30 years ago. Nor do I even pirate games at this point. I could, I just don’t feel a need or desire to. So YMMV.

      I’ve used Heroic, yes. Heroic is not suitable for pirated games. Lutris is. I do not care about the dev using genAI, the app works fine and I will continue to happily use it as long as it works. I am not interested in Bottles or other alternatives.

        Fair enough. And yeah I’m not horribly opposed to them using llm stuff. It’s more of a hindrance than it is a real help anyhow. Much more concerning is their assholish behavior about it. If you’re going to use it use it just own up to it and be clear. Spitefully trying to hide or obfuscate is the behavior of someone who would try to hide or obfuscate data loggers back doors or other malicious code knowingly or unknowingly. Not something you need a higher risk of when you’re trying to pirate binaries.

        What? I tried making cyberpunk 2077 (the high sea ‘edition’) works on lutris for hours before giving up. Next day I test heroic and it worked first time
