I haven't run a Linux machine in years. Has wine improved or was I just not savvy enough to get things to run on it?
It's really good for WoW and GW2.
How's the blizz launcher now? I bailed and went to ffxiv and that plays flawlessly. I keep trying to talk myself out of going back to wow because of how toxic it became.
It runs about as well as it does under Windows. I'm not currently interested in paying another subscription - feels like too much pressure and the amount I spent on WoW over the years is distressing.
I've been playing GW2 since December and it also runs well with Wine.
I feel that, played from LK to Shadowlands. At times I miss it, but really just miss the old days of it and the people I played with.
