Valve has pushed out what they're calling Proton 9.0 (Release Candidate 2), with a whole bunch of improvements for gaming on Linux Desktop and Steam Deck.
I’m just waiting for proton to make vtmnb playable on my deck without the extra hoops. If anyone wants to hang out over here with me, I do have cake. Just silly little me, with my silly little cake and my silly little wish to play the game again.
On the contrary having moved to linux made me enjoy way more very old games recently from the 90s just enable the right libraries in proton.
With compatibility layers like proton/wine itself i see no reason why we couldn’t have old games playable click and play in the future.
We would need a community of maintenance but the biggest hurdle is actually ip ownership and copyright law. Why let customer’s play old games if they can buy a new version instead.
I bought it on gog couple days back, can run it and play but mouse look has problems where looking with the mouse leaves it locked either to bottom or top, in general eratic mouse movements.
You experiencing this also or you didn’t experience this bug?

Don’t old games need tweaks and mods to play on windows too? I doubt all old games will ever be click and play as it exists now.

Yeah but steam deck uses Linux, which uses proton specifically to run windows games. Not sure why I’m being downvoted lol
What’s the full name if that game?
Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines
