And now Valve needs to figure out how to tell users which game works and which game doesn't work. Maybe some kind of badge for Proton?
Integrating ProtonDB into the steam client would be a nice.
I tend to do my Steam shopping in the browser and I use the ProtonDB-Peek userscript. This gives a ProtonDB status badge in the right column under the review links.
Apparently, this is a browser extension (well, a script for a browser extension), so it works when you browse the Steam catalog through your web browser, but not through their client. Or did I miss anything?
Correct, that's what I meant to imply in the first part of my comment. When I research new games I do that from a web browser and that's when I care about Proton status the most so this works great for that. It does not help when using the Steam client.
Thanks. You even did specify you used it from a browser, I wasn't paying attention, sorry.
That's exactly what they said:
Right, so they did. Silly me. Thanks.
