What’s the best way to play pirated windows games on Linux?

Ever since I’ve migrated I stuck to emulation for game piracy cause it was pretty simple. Ive been trying to run some repacked games but I can’t get them to install properly.

I don’t see many people talk about this probably because most game pirates use windows if I had to guess.

    I’ve been installing dodi, elamigos, fitgirl repacks for a while and still have to find one not working. Dunno what repacks are you installing.

      I’ve tried a number of fitgirl ones and had only around a 50% success rate with them.

        Yeah fitgirl doesn’t work well with translation layers. In my experience elamigos works the best out of all repackers.

        Try the jc141 repack. It worked for me. It’s a linux repack so I think their script handles the wine stuff.

      I’ve only had issues with fitgirl repacks i think there’s an optimisation they use for low RAM machines that doesn’t play well with proton
