Only thing so far is other game launchers, and VR. I'm still dual booting, especially for VR.

For other game launchers use bottles

I'm not well versed with bottles, is there a good resource for that?

I honestly just watched a youtube tutorial

You probably can look into the arch wiki although if you don't use arch there may be some differences.

If i find the youtube video i will edit this comment and link it [here]

Alternatively here is how i did it:

•Install the bottles application (from the aur) •install proton ge runner •Create a new bottle •select proton ge as runner for said bottle •Download launcher installer (battle.net in my case) •run application > battlenetinstaller.exe (or however it's named)

Using Fedora, I will look for some YouTube guides. Thanks for the info!
