I cannot, for the life of me, get Hogwarts, Forza 5 and Immortals of Aveum to run with wine.

Have you tried using Proton through Steam? It’s possible to load in external games and programs.

Even pirated games work if you run the installer through Steam.

Uhm aveum, and hogwarts works with proton for sure, because I played them with my Linux desktop. Aveum had some issues, but should work OOB now.

Forza I don’t know :/ Weird

Stange, on Steam Immortals of Aveum is marked as “Unplayable” on the Steam Deck.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2009100/Immortals_of_Aveum/

The most common reason for this is some DRM that doesn’t work on Wine/Proton. So looking at the store page I would guess that this is the culprit:

Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: Incorporated 3rd-Party DRM: Denuvo Anti-tamper

But I guess you get what you deserve. Don’t buy EA games and your life will improve.

As you can see here is gold on protondb, it is unsupported on deck only because it’s a really heavy game, and the deck does not have enough horse power to play well, but on my beefy desktop it works.

But yeah, the denuvo anti-tamper for sure does not help the performance.

I had the same issue with forza for a long time. as far as I can tell, the only fix is to get an AMD GPU. I uprgaded my 1070 to 7900xtx and now forza runs like a dream. never tried those other two games though
