So all the talk is that Linux is great for gaming now, and tbf, it has come a long way. But there’s a good portion of people like me and my friends who still regularly use windows because we love modding the crap out of all of our favorite games and that’s just not feasible on Linux, vortex doesn’t work and most modloaders have a bunch of bootstrap fixes you have to do, God forbid you want to debug your mod list and change often.
So I guess my question is, does anyone have any news on the state of Linux modding, has anyone out there got a git project in alpha or something coming up that might open the floodgates for us modders? Pretty please?


I’m always confused by people saying that Vortex doesn’t work on Linux, when I’ve used it for years now on both my Fedora desktop and my Steam Deck. I didn’t even have to do anything outrageous to get it working. Install with Lutris like anything else made for Windows, press play, it works great.
Edit: Realized this sounded maybe judgmental, when I didn’t mean it to. Not trying to make anyone feel bad in any way. More like encouragement, because once you get over the hump of figuring out how to use tools like Lutris to run games, running Vortex is the same process.
