So I’ve got a unique situation. I just got a new laptop, and it has a nice CPU, but only an iGPU. It can certainly run older games, even with an iGPU, but I don’t know how I should go about it. I don’t like to use steam because it’s a proprietary, and I also don’t like to use wine because of the dependency and compatibility issues. I have tried emulation but that’s a good bit more demanding than native/translated games. Does anyone have ideas for a solution, or should I just quit trying and install another distro for gaming uses?

    Um… were you looking for only open-source games? Good luck

      It’s just a preference, I prefer downloading from GOG, without the DRM or proprietary clients. Edit: I know steam has an open source command line tool
