So as a diehard Win7 fan I am forced to move on from my comfortable, reliable, clean windows 7 I have been using for 10 years to something else as end of support is here. Im not gonna use windows 10 even if they hold a gun to my head, the obvious alternative was linux. I like zorin a lot so installed it and its been 3 days and other than minecraft I couldnt get a single game to work on linux and now Im getting withdrawal symptoms that I cant play with anything. Wine is useless, Rainbow 6 and WOT are the two main games I play with, wot client runs fine in wine but the launcher does not so unless I have a windows dual-booted that I use to update my wot client I cant use it. Rainbow cant be played through wine as you need steam and uplay to run with it, protondb doesnt work with it so Im trying to get around all of this with VMware. Or at least I wanted to but its god awful slow. Virtualbox with the same machine settings runs smooth but that has very limited graphics capability that is not suitable to run games like this even at the lowest settings. But even if they ran fine, I would rather not play because whats the point of a GTX 970 if I play like Im on intel hd?
Dual-boot isnt an option, because it defeats the purpose of having linux. Might as well go back to win7 and get a paid anti-virus... I dont want to jump around between OS's.
Is there any way to play normally on linux? Or was I bamboozled.
