    Damn that’s pretty awesome. So this is the actual developer of ESO, that is spending time making their game compatible with Linux?

      Sounds like it — it was posted by The Elder Scrolls Online, not Valve. (Edit: Yes, of course this still means Proton.)

      Not necessarily. My understanding is that you can earn a green check as long as your game feels like a native console experience, even if it’s running on Proton

        Wine/proton are great but not perfect. Lots of games don’t work through proton. “Compatible with linux” can mean doing the work to make sure your windows build is proton friendly and will work on Linux. It doesn’t have to mean Linux native.
