    Is this really that rare? Maybe it’s because I pretty much exclusively game on Linux but I feel like I see that message rather often.


    On a side note I feel like Linux gamers could help each other out by mentioning how well the game works with Proton in their review. Also if there’s any tweaks you need to do like using a specific version or bugs you encountered.

    It doesn’t need to effect the over all review. Good to know though.

      It’s completely random whether you get this, or not, in each of the waves they send out

      I’m doing my part.

      Review every game beginning with “this works great thanks to the devs native Linux support / or Valve Proton”.

        Oh yeah I typically check there and the PCGamingWiki if I run into difficulties but it’s nice to not have to leave the Steam store page. Though admittedly I should probably check ProtonDB anyway in case an update caused a game to stop working with Proton.

      Does Steam now have a way to search reviews? Because without one, I think those would be nearly impossible to find in an ocean of other reviews.

          Yes, but the suggestion was about Steam reviews, not protondb reports.

            @ono I thought protondb reports brought you closer to what you were looking for. IDK if sifting through uncurated steam reviews would be helpful without Steam first implementing such filters that would remove all other reviews.

              I’m not looking. I was responding to someone’s idea for helping others.

              Yes, that is what I wrote. We are in agreement.
