      With wine you just need to know what winetricks to use, e.g. like if a game needs dotnet 4.0 or another windows runtime/prerequisite. Winehq has a similar premise with different compatabiltiy ratings and steps others have taken to troubleshoot. You wont get installer scripts but you will get good directions most of the time. Any game rated platinum or gold is a breeze to set up

        Imma be honest, outside of Proton I just hate dealin with wine.

        Which is why i liked Lutris and its install scripts so much.

        but i will definitely bookmark that link in case i give wine a try again. tyvm

      You run the game’s actual installer exe file in the bottle to install the game. No installation script needed.
