Classy HatterāAll gamesā type of lists arenāt necessarily very useful, considering the amount of shovelware that exists. ProtonDBās Dashboard visualizes the data they have. You can change the category to, for example, āTop 10ā or āTop 1000ā games measured by peak concurrent players. Out of the Top 10 games, 60% gets a silver or better rating, while out of the Top 1000, 89% gets silver or better.
BizzleIs 89% of the top 1000 not good enough to just call it 90% of games?
Not the one you replied to, but I would like to say that you make a solid point, it is good enough to say 90% of games.
Buuuut I would prefer being told 89% of top 1000 instead.
Iād say thereās a big difference between ā90% of all gamesā and ā90% of top 1000ā. 90% of all games might be playable but if the top 1000 are unplayable, thatās not very good.
I guess I just wanted to add a couple data points to the discussion. One is that even though the article is about āall gamesā, it so happens that ātop 1000 gamesā (measured in some way) happen to share the same number. And I didnāt want to round it because that would have been a reporting error.
The other point being that out of the ātop 10 gamesā (measured in some way), only 6 are playable on Linux. What I didnāt say is that one of the other 4 games cannot be played at all. Those are not numbers I want to see. I want all top 10 games to be playable.
Thatās fair. Honestly, the only games in my experience that donāt run on Linux have been artificially crippled with anticheat; I even play some old ones that donāt even run on windows anymore š
all windows games?
Or all ostensibly windows-only Steam games?
They are basing it on this article in which they monitor ProtonDB.
So probably just steam games then.
Iām curious if they count
- multi-platform games which would show as ānativeā on protondb
- native games that only actually work by using the windows version with Proton
- the small number of games that only work on Linux but not windows
- non-steam games added to the steam launcher

talFar more than 90% of the Steam games I own run on Linux.
N.E.P.T.RI even play a game that doesnt have native modding support and I just run the community mod patcher .bat using wine, and then the game run like normal through Steam with 80+ mods. Its crazy the shit you can get away with by using Wine and Proton.
MadBits10+ years on Linux, absolutely worth it once you get the hang of it. Although it takes some time.
Bei mir laufen sogar ein paar wieder, die unter Windows nicht mehr liefen. Ć
Kann ich bestƤtigen. Ich hab diverse Spiele ausprobiert bei denen ich mir unter Windows echt die ZƤhne ausgebissen hab in der Vergangenheit. Unter Linux liefen die manchmal einfach so. Mal musste ich nur mit drei Klicks die Protonversion anpassen. Selten noch was von protondb in die Startparameter reinkopieren.
Nur Kane & Lynch hat so richtig Probleme gemacht wo die Grafikoptionen immer zu einem Crash gefĆ¼hrt haben und je nach Kamerawinkel der ganze Bildschirm schwarz wurde im Spiel. Aber das Spiel hab ich auch unter Windows seit 2007 unter Windows XP nie wieder vernĆ¼nftig zum laufen gebracht.
Black and white. Was war ich erstaunt, als das plƶtzlich lief.
