I permanently deleted the Blizzard/Battle.net identity I'd had since D2:LoD after dealing with Blizzard Support over Diablo IV.
Hour long waits to get in, frequent crashes and logouts, no actual help or troubleshooting, and my refund was denied for "too much in-game time" within 48 hours of purchase (6 hours of troubleshooting and waiting, about an hour of uninterrupted play). This was on a native Windows install, by the way.
My point is that Linux is a great filter for companies with the worst behaviors. If it happens to be a coincidence that the games that tend not to work on Linux also belong to those companies, so much the better.
Also, if it's not in Wine's AppDB or ProtonDB, try using https://looking-glass.io/ https://looking-glass.io/ with a Win10 IoT VM that's been "debloated". It's like having Windows as a Service.
- erinnh 3y agoDo be aware though that many modern games with anti cheat will not run in Windows VMs. It was the reason why I deleted my Windows VM last year.
