I’ve been dual booting Ubuntu and Windows for a good few years now. I keep the windows around for gaming, because, ahem, I don’t like giving EA, among others, money. I know it’s not a problem to play most of the games I’ve paid for on Linux, but does anyone have experience with playing games on Linux that you’ve, somehow, obtained for free? And keeping them updated, too?

I’m still going to dual boot because keeping my games separate from my work is a decent adhd strategy for me, so I’m open to gaming friendly OS suggestions as well!

    for games that fell off a truck or something, maybe look here. I’ve found almost all of those I’ve found in the mentioned way to work without issues with lutris.

    as to upgrading the games, hadn’t tried that. I know there are periodic updates for popular titles (like Cyberpunk 2077) released and you can find them in the same place you found the game, but seems too much hassle.
