Since I game on Linux, Steam provides enough value since most games with Proton are one-click install. Don't use other stores though.

- the_af 4y agoSteam+Proton is magical these days, I have no problem supporting creators and buying their games. With Steam, GOG and Humble Bundle, it's never been easier to game on Linux. It feels like paradise. In a way, gaming is in much better shape (re: convenience) than streaming TV shows these days. Yes, DRM for online play can be problematic for Proton -- but fuck those games!
- majkinetor 4y agoSteam provides something else too - up to date and patched games for latest systems. Its hard to follow those otherwise. However, I am sure it will turn out to be scam one day and you will lose access to all/most games you bought.
- deckard1 4y agoLutris makes it easy to install GOG and Epic store games as well. Epic has been giving away a lot of games the past year or two, so it's a great option for Linux. Amazon Prime also gives away games that usually redeem on GOG or other stores. Great time to be a patient gamer. I have a huge, 100% legal collection of games that were all free thanks to these stores competing to build up their reputation.
