- Rootkits are still unsupported though.

how well wine works is one of those things that amazes me nowadays. it used to be so hit and miss a decade or so ago.

- It is such a treat. I only fully converted last year in October but it's been such a breeze, I can only imagine the pain even several years ago.

  Linux users are just alcoholic's deeply in denial.

I need a step by step tutorial how to set up flatpak bottles 😅 and how one installs games/apps from a iso file.

- You may want to look at lutris.

  I was not able to achieve anything with lutris neither last time I tried 😂😅

- You'll want to download the correct dependencies for the bottle after creating it. Off the top of my head.
  
  vcredist 2022
  
  dotnet 4.8
  
  dotnetcore3
  
  d3dx9
  
  d3dx11
  
  d3compiler
  
  You'll want to download Wine-GE, which may or may not be included in bottles. Otherwise, I hear the latest Caffe works pretty well, but I have never personally tried it.
  
  Also, enable DXVK and VKD3D setting the latest ones for that.
  
  Lastly, ensure the renderer is set to Vulkan instead of the default GL.
  
  This is all off the top of my head and I don't remember where these settings are exactly but usually all within the bottle. I don't use flatpak bottles, so I'm not sure what dependencies are already included. Someone feel free to correct me.
  
  Use the bottles documentation online, too!

  I have about 50 games in prefixes and never had to use
  
  dotnetcore3
  
  d3dx9
  
  d3dx11
  
  d3compiler
  
  Isn't dotnetcore redundant with dotnet, and d3d* with dxvk?
  
  Kenshi really needs their own vcrun in depencies folder tho. And cd to exe to run, what shit software.

  So you recommend to just use the AUR package? 😇

- Would that new GE Proton-led project meant to make a "universal launcher" help with the latter? It might not be out yet.

  🧐I’ll investigate
  
  Edit: https://github.com/Open-Wine-Components/umu-launcher
  
  Looks interesting indeed, but I guess doesn’t make that mich of a difference in my use case.

Right, Spice and Wolf got a reboot. Nobody knows why, but at least the animations are nicer.

- Apparently the previous adaptation skipped and changed things.

- It might be nicer/more modern, but it looks kinda... generic. I think a lot more people would've been happier with a continuation of the original.

  I've been enjoying it so far. The new Holo is a different vibe from the original. I liked the original opening theme though.
