I may need a completely different device, a phone for example, with its notepad, to memo all the apps (and games) I need with me before I can uninstall Windows completely in favour of, say, Pop!_OS, but..............Tetris Effect: ConnectedThis one is a lost cause, thanks Microsoft. I'll need to re-buy this on Steam to even get started. Unless UWP on Linux is somewhat possible......Floral Flowlove (フローラル・フローラブ)I have a raw dump, for starters.
Some forums out there call out the Siglus engine as the problematic when it comes to launching this game, but what they don't know is the game not only needs the Japanese locale on Windows but as well the Japanese timezone setting. If I'm down to the NekoNyan translated release, well, crap, this is the one going into the Bottles I guess......assuming it works there, if I don't need Proton for it.
If this one works, automatically any other visual novel should work.Princess Connect! Re:Dive (プリンセスコネクト!Re:Dive)This one honestly has me thinking all the time, since it's a DMM GAMES release, and DMM in itself could be a DRM for some out there. I tried asking r/Priconne about this, but the post was immediately filtered and auto-deleted by reddit itself, which is a shame honestly, but reddit being reddit as usual. Whether Wine or Proton will do I'm not sure, since while there's the stuff like Lutris and Heroic, whether they can take in DMM Game Player or not is the question.
If this one works, retroactively Uma Musume: Pretty Derby (ウマ娘 プリティーダービー) should work as well.DEEMO -Reborn-Pirated copy. I'm not going to buy this until Rayark redeem themselves after the AI fiasco.
In fact what makes this a problem is the fact I pirated it, given I don't know EXACTLY how Wine deals with these sorts of stuff. Or Proton at that. (Bottles is just a Wine interface after all.) If anyone on Linux pirated a Windows game before, any info would help.DJMAX RESPECT VI'll have to figure out for these aforementioned first before I can uninstall Windows, but maybe if anyone knows (please read the spoilerboxes) I could use help before experimenting with Pop!_OS (dualboot first) and getting any results, be it good or bad?I did not buy this yet.
XIGNCODE3.
Period.
For reference:
Lenovo Legion Y540Detailed specs if curious
- Intel Core i7-9750H
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6GB
- 16GB DDR4-2666
- 256GB NVMe M.2 Gen3 + 1TB SATA 5400RPM
EDIT: For reference I tried using a virtual machine first, but Bottles couldn't even get started, so I thought maybe it's the idea I'm using a VM that's holding it back.
Tetris Effect: Connected is listed on ProtonDB as Platinum and it is Deck Verified, so it should work OOTB
I've Aokana, Senren Banka and Qualia installed. They work by simply calling Wine on the exe files. They're NekoNyan/Sekai Project versions of the games, however and it seems that the title Floral Flowlove isn't yet released by NekoNyan. If shit hits the fan bad, VMs are available (from VirtualBox to more advanced things like QEMU) and dual booting is IMO a valid option if you can afford to have two different HDDs in your computer or you have enough space for both OSes.
For the third title, I honestly have no idea. I'm sorry, but I simply can't even extract anything.
Pirated games on Linux is a mixed bag. There is one group that releases native games and Windows games that have pre-made prefixes and sometimes Wine versions. You can download the games pre-installed and then run them through Wine-ge or Proton (imo better) directly. I have had great results with these two in the past.
I honestly don't know what you meant in the final spoilerbox, so I will just skip it.
As a frame of reference, if the game is on Steam, there's a high chance it works OOTB or with minor tweaks. If not, it will depend on the game's popularity and how little Windows only components it uses.
