    I personally use bottles installed through flatpak for non-steam game needs. Especially if you’re pirating, you can use flatseal to disable things like internet access for bottles (and games that you run through bottles) and inter-process communication, making it just a bit safer if you have trust issues.

    Setting bottles up is a bit of a pain, but once you do that you can pretty much run anything through it easily

    So I set up bazzite recently to play with it, and it has steam and lutris preinstalled which is nice. I installed the heroic games launcher flatpak from the discover app just because it’s been easier to set up games than lutris has been in my experience. You connect your other store accounts in the setup and you just have a list of games to click on and install, same way as you do in steam.

    You can also install individual exe files in heroic pretty easily, I’ve had better success with games like king arthur legends rise by installing them in heroic as a custom game.

    You may not need it, but you can also install ProtonUp-Qt if you need to install a specific proton version like Glorious Eggroll or something. It’s another point and click app that’ll do everything for you.

    Like everyone else, I suggest Lutris or Heroic Games Launcher for most games. Lutris has a relatively straightforward interface to walk you through what it offers. I can even help you install EA and Ubisoft games. Heroic launcher allows you to install games from the Epic and GOG stores. Minecraft has multiple launchers available. Plus, there’s RetroArch and DOSBox for most retro stuff. There are system-specific emulators like Dolphin for GameCube. There are even some fun, free games like “Super Tux Kart” and “Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead.”

    Everything I just mentioned is available for download using the “Discover” app in desktop mode of Bazzite. If you have questions about specific games, I might be able to help.

      The Bazzite devs all use and suggest Lutris themselves for anything that isn’t Epic, and none of them use Bottles. I have no opinion and also use Lutris, but if OP wants help from them officially, that’s gonna be their suggestion.

    What Linux distro are you using? I’m on Aurora and wine doesn’t really work unless you install it from the distrobox.

    Not familiar with bazzite but lutris works great, its super neat and very intuitive to use, even to sail the seas on Windows waters

      I’d like to add that for those who have problems installing pirated copies with wine or lutris, i used windows in virtualbox with a shared folder to extract them, then added the game in lutris.

    I don’t know what you to do exactly but most thing should be solvable with lutris. It is pre-installed in bazzite. Afair it should do wine and proton.
