i tried to run cyberpunk for hours and didnt work. im back to windows 11 where stuff work
i have dodi repack of cyberpunk,i tested it on ubuntu after i installed the drivers for my gpu. i used bottles,terminal wine,lutris,steam add non steam app with proton,heroic. and none of them worked. only wine did and the screen was black but sound was there so still useless. i searched for hours and tried everything nothing worked.
i just nuked the ubuntu parition and bios place gone back to windows. launched the game and it worked fine.
i will never use linux again until the gaming is fixed.
people that read linux is good for gaming,dont get scammed like i did. stay on windows if you care about gaming.
note: this post isnt a ragebait im serious this did happen.
on windows it works perfectly. it isnt much to ask for this game to work on linux. knowing those are same game files just stripped of steam drm.
If you bought the game, all you would have to do is click install and Steam would have done all of the setup for you. If you pirate, then you have to do that work yourself. It’s not particularly difficult, but it takes more than just double clicking on an exe file.
It isn’t much to ask for a game built for one operating system to work perfectly on a completely, fundamentally different operating system, by means of the vastly complex and enormous work of thousands of people, which they donated to the world so that you can access it for free?
it isnt much yes. when that os claims perfect working with the same game of steam verison. why does it not work if the drm is stripped?
But you aren’t using the steam version, you are using a cracked version…
It would most likely work if you set it up correctly, but of course, you somehow expect it to run by sheer magic… Do you think the person who cracked it/removed drm just got it working by means of magic without any effort?
The only reason why it works on windows is because someone else did the effort for you.
