Steam Makes it Easier to Play Windows Games on Linux
|
||||
======
|
||||
![Steam Wallpaper][1]
|
||||
|
||||
It’s no secret that the [Linux gaming][2] library offers only a fraction of what the Windows library offers. In fact, many people wouldn’t even consider [switching to Linux][3] simply because most of the games they want to play aren’t available on the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
At the time of writing this article, Linux has just over 5,000 games available on Steam compared to the library’s almost 27,000 total games. Now, 5,000 games may be a lot, but it isn’t 27,000 games, that’s for sure.
|
||||
|
||||
And though almost every new indie game seems to launch with a Linux release, we are still left without a way to play many [Triple-A][4] titles. For me, though there are many titles I would love the opportunity to play, this has never been a make-or-break problem since almost all of my favorite titles are available on Linux since I primarily play indie and [retro games][5] anyway.
|
||||
|
||||
### Meet Proton: a WINE Fork by Steam
|
||||
|
||||
Now, that problem is a thing of the past since this week Valve [announced][6] a new update to Steam Play that adds a forked version of Wine to the Linux and Mac Steam clients called Proton. Yes, the tool is open-source, and Valve has made the source code available on [Github][7]. The feature is still in beta though, so you must opt into the beta Steam client in order to take advantage of this functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
#### With proton, more Windows games are available for Linux on Steam
|
||||
|
||||
What does that actually mean for us Linux users? In short, it means that both Linux and Mac computers can now play all 27,000 of those games without needing to configure something like [PlayOnLinux][8] or [Lutris][9] to do so! Which, let me tell you, can be quite the headache at times.
|
||||
|
||||
The more complicated answer to this is that it sounds too good to be true for a reason. Though, in theory, you can play literally every Windows game on Linux this way, there is only a short list of games that are officially supported at launch, including DOOM, Final Fantasy VI, Tekken 7, Star Wars: Battlefront 2, and several more.
|
||||
|
||||
#### You can play all Windows games on Linux (in theory)
|
||||
|
||||
Though the list only has about 30 games thus far, you can force enable Steam to install and play any game through Proton by marking the “Enable Steam Play for all titles” checkbox. But don’t get your hopes too high. They do not guarantee the stability and performance you may be hoping for, so keep your expectations reasonable.
|
||||
|
||||
![Steam Play][10]
|
||||
|
||||
#### Experiencing Proton: Not as bad as I expected
|
||||
|
||||
For example, I installed a few moderately taxing games to put Proton through its paces. One of which was The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and in the two hours I played the game, it only crashed once, and it was almost immediately after an autosave point during the tutorial.
|
||||
|
||||
I have an Nvidia Gtx 1050 Ti, so I was able to play the game at 1080p with high settings, and I didn’t see a single problem outside of that one crash. The only negative feedback I really have is that the framerate was not nearly as high as it would have been if it was a native game. I got above 60 frames 90% of the time, but I admit it could have been better.
|
||||
|
||||
Every other game that I have installed and launched has also worked flawlessly, granted I haven’t played any of them for an extended amount of time yet. Some games I installed include The Forest, Dead Rising 4, H1Z1, and Assassin’s Creed II (can you tell I like horror games?).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Why is Steam (still) betting on Linux?
|
||||
|
||||
Now, this is all fine and dandy, but why did this happen? Why would Valve spend the time, money, and resources needed to implement something like this? I like to think they did so because they value the Linux community, but if I am honest, I don’t believe we had anything to do with it.
|
||||
|
||||
If I had to put money on it, I would say Valve has developed Proton because they haven’t given up on [Steam machines][11] yet. And since [Steam OS][12] is running on Linux, it is in their best interest financially to invest in something like this. The more games available on Steam OS, the more people might be willing to buy a Steam Machine.
|
||||
|
||||
Maybe I am wrong, but I bet this means we will see a new wave of Steam machines coming in the not-so-distant future. Maybe we will see them in one year, or perhaps we won’t see them for another five, who knows!
|
||||
|
||||
Either way, all I know is that I am beyond excited to finally play the games from my Steam library that I have slowly accumulated over the years from all of the Humble Bundles, promo codes, and random times I bought a game on sale just in case I wanted to try to get it running in Lutris.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Excited for more gaming on Linux?
|
||||
|
||||
What do you think? Are you excited about this, or are you afraid fewer developers will create native Linux games because there is almost no need to now? Does Valve love the Linux community, or do they love money? Let us know what you think in the comment section below, and check back in for more FOSS content like this.

steam 让我们在 Linux 上玩 Windows 的游戏更加容易
|
||||
======
|
||||
![Steam Wallpaper][1]
|
||||
|
||||
总所周知，Linux 游戏库中的游戏只有 Windows 游戏库中的一部分，实际上，许多人甚至都不会考虑将操作系统转换为 Linux，原因很简单，因为他们喜欢的游戏，大多数都不能在这个平台上运行。
|
||||
|
||||
在撰写本文时，steam 上已有超过 5000 种游戏可以在 Linux 上运行，而 steam 上的游戏总数已经接近 27000 种了。现在 5000 种游戏可能看起来很多，但还没有达到 27000 种，确实没有。
|
||||
|
||||
虽然几乎所有的新的独立游戏都是在 Linux 中推出的，但我们仍然无法在这上面玩很多的 3A 大作。对我而言，虽然这其中有很多游戏我都很希望能有机会玩，但这从来都不是一个非黑即白的问题。因为我主要是玩独立游戏和复古游戏，所以几乎所有我喜欢的游戏都可以在 Linux 系统上运行。
|
||||
|
||||
### 认识 Proton，Steam 的一次 WINE 分叉。
|
||||
|
||||
现在，这个问题已经成为过去式了，因为本周 Valve 宣布要对 Steam Play 进行一次更新，此次更新会将一个名为 Proton 的分叉版本的 Wine 添加到 Linux 和 Mac 的客户端中。是的，这个工具是开源的，Valve 已经在 GitHub 上开源了源代码，但该功能仍然处于测试阶段，所以你必须使用测试版的 Steam 客户端才能使用这项功能。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 使用 proton ，可以在 Linux 系统上使用 Steam 运行更多的 Windows 上的游戏。
|
||||
|
||||
这对我们这些 Linux 用户来说，实际上意味着什么？简单来说，这意味着我们可以在 Linux 和 Mac 这两种操作系统的电脑上运行全部 27000 种游戏，而无需配置像 PlayOnLinux 或 Lutris 这样的服务。我要告诉你的是，配置这些东西有时候会非常让人头疼。
|
||||
|
||||
对此更为复杂的答案是，某种原因听起来非常美好。虽然在理论上，你可以用这种方式在 Linux 上玩所有的 Windows 平台上的游戏。但只有一少部分游戏在推出时会正式支持 Linux。这少部分游戏包括 DOOM，最终幻想 VI，铁拳 7，星球大战：前线 2，和其他几个。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 你可以在 Linux 上玩所有的 Windows 平台的游戏（理论上）
|
||||
|
||||
虽然目前该列表只有大约 30 个游戏，你可以点击“为所有游戏使用 Steam play 进行运行”复选框来强制使用 Steam 的 Proton 来安装和运行任意游戏。但你最好不要有太高的期待，它们的稳定性和性能表现不一定有你希望的那么好，所以请把期望值压低一点。
|
||||
|
||||
![Steam Play][10]
|
||||
|
||||
#### 体验 Proton，没有我想的那么烂。
|
||||
|
||||
例如，我安装了一些中等价格的游戏，使用 Proton 来进行安装。其中一个是上古卷轴 4：湮没，在我玩这个游戏的两个小时里，它只崩溃了一次，而且几乎是紧跟在游戏教程的自动保存点之后。
|
||||
|
||||
我有一块英伟达 Gtx 1050 Ti 的显卡。所以我可以使用 1080P 的高配置来玩这个游戏。而且我没有遇到除了这次崩溃之外的任何问题。我唯一真正感到不爽的只有它的帧数没有原本的高。在 90% 的时间里，游戏的帧数都在 60 帧以上，但我知道它的帧数应该能更高。
|
||||
|
||||
我安装和发布的其他所有游戏都运行得很完美，虽然我还没有较长时间地玩过它们中的任何一个。我安装的游戏中包括森林，丧尸围城 4，H1Z1，和刺客信条 2.（你能说我这是喜欢恐怖游戏吗？）。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 为什么 Steam（仍然）要下注在 Linux 上？
|
||||
|
||||
现在，一切都很好，这件事为什么会发生呢？为什么 Valve 要花费时间，金钱和资源来做这样的事？我倾向于认为，他们这样做是因为他们懂得 Linux 社区的价值，但是如果要我老实地说，我不相信我们和它有任何的关系。
|
||||
|
||||
如果我一定要在这上面花钱，我想说 Valve 开发了 Proton，因为他们还没有放弃 Steam 机器。因为 Steam OS 是基于 Linux 的发行版，在这类东西上面投资可以获取最大的利润，Steam OS 上可用的游戏越多，就会有更多的人愿意购买 Steam 的机器。
|
||||
|
||||
可能我是错的，但是我敢打赌啊，我们会在不远的未来看到新一批的 Steam 机器。可能我们会在一年内看到它们，也有可能我们再等五年都见不到，谁知道呢！
|
||||
|
||||
无论哪种方式，我所知道的是，我终于能兴奋地从我的 Steam 游戏库里玩游戏了。多年来我通过所有的收藏包，游戏促销，和不定时地买一个贱卖的游戏来以防万一，我想去尝试让它在 Lutris 中运行。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 为 Linux 上越来越多的游戏而激动？
|
||||
|
||||
你怎么看？你对此感到激动吗？或者说你会害怕只有很少的开发者会开发 Linux 平台上的游戏，因为现在几乎没有需求？Valve 喜欢 Linux 社区，还是说他们喜欢钱？请在下面的评论区告诉我们您的想法，然后重新搜索来查看更多类似这样的开源软件方面的文章。
