Re: FH4, ms store and steam versions are incompatable, and I’m not replaying 3.5k hours to get back to where I’m at (eat shit and die, devs, it’d be easy as fuck to do but you’re little shitstains and lifting a finger that you don’t absolutely have to is far too much effort, we know). I know this because I got the steam version on release to find out that all my progress is magically gone. Thank fuck steam has refunds now.
Halo Wars 1 is on steam, but 2 is not :( (and it’s the far superior game, imo).
I’m basically looking for a system that scans my existing games, gives a “yes it all works” or “no and here’s why”, that I can use to actually migrate. Other comments deep in the tree go over this but tl;dr I’m so tired of being excited and hopeful and drop a week+ into it just for a showstopping problem and I revert to the windows system backups. I’m tired of being the guinea pig, ya know?

Well, you can connect your steam account to protondb and tap on “explore” button. That will not cover any software\games, but at least something. Altho, I would say: why you even want to switch at this point? Like, if you can withstand windows bullshitery but not linux bullshitery - stay on windows mate, no one will judge you. That why I staying on linux for example, even tho my work as junior system administrator mostly requires me to work with windows. I just can’t go to home, boot my pc and acknowledge the fact, that windows “updated” driver of my 7900xtx and I can’t play damn minecraft for 10 minutes before bed, cause I need to spend at least 20-30 minutes to fix that shit. I just can’t. Yes, my arch linux may broke on occasion cause of update or smth like that, but at least I have full control about that. And if something happens, it’s usually cause you decided to do something, not cause Microsoft decided silently “fix” their security issue in “Print Spooler” and broke all shared printers in the facility I working in.
