If it's the repacker I'm thinking of (JC), he makes it so complicated for no reason. Was that the case again here or was it someone else? I'd rather just use Lutris than his releases.

I unfortunately don't know where to search :'( Do you have a hint for me?

Torrent. I don't know why people act like it's a secret. This isn't a Signal chat with war plans bro.

I don't understand why I would need that. Can't you just run any release through a normally installed version of wine?

In most cases -- no. Wine is far from being a reliable tool. Many programs demand this or that patch for Wine to work. And you surely don't want to tinker with that.

I've only had like 3 games from FitGirl not work fine installing with Lutris.

2 of them needed some dependency like .NET installed first, and only one I could get working at all but the DODi version worked fine.

Everyone kept telling me Wine sucks even before I switch to Linux. But I've had it work fine a lot more times than not, even for some old obscure software that barely works on Windows 10 anymore.

Weird. I have yet to encounter a game that wine-ge couldn't handle out of the box.

I have an old Win95 game that isn't working very well but that doesn't run on modern windows either

I have tried many different fitgirl repacks through bottles. Currently playing Alan Wake 2 without issues.
