hello fellow sailers , hope you're having a nice day , a few months back i switched to arch linux because my computer has good ram but not that good gpu , but now i would like to play some og games like portal 2 , portal 1 , inscryption etc from fitgirl repacks and i have scoured through many guides but nothing just works , too complicated. can't there be a simple guide with preferably images or something like that (like a website /blog maybe?) I would really appreciate that since many of my friends may like to join linux ship but they are pirates like me as well who wouldn't be able to play games on linux. #Fitgirl-repacks,#Linux

If the game isn't too big, you can add the installer exe to Steam via the "add a non-Steam game" menu, set it up to run with Proton, and then click the Play button which will launch the installer. When it's done installing, remove the installer from your games, and add the game's exe to Steam directly.

If the game is too big (60gb or more) use Lutris's "install a game" feature, and run the installer from there.
