    Is your issue that Lutris is buggy or limiting? I haven’t encountered buggy behavior in Lutris, and it gives you a ton of options. I like some parts of bottles but I would really like to be able to change cover art without editing a config file, lol. It’s definitely the easiest way to get started with Wine though.

    There’s Heroic Games Launcher too, by the way. It has less features than Lutris but it’s probably easier to use? It’s also prettier than Lutris, I think. What issues were you having with Lutris?

      To me, Lutris has always been a very stubborn application.

      • Saying a game is running while its not
      • saying a game is not running while it is
      • unclear library override versioning (whats the difference between disabled and Manual, why can’t I provide my own version from the UI directly then)
      • hard to troubleshoot as I cannot see at a glance how Wine is invoked and the logs tend to be hard to read inside the logs popup window
      • hard to see what winetricks is trying to do when invoked from it

      Yet, when I say it gets the job done I mean it. But the program itself adds some more headaches, yet I need it as I don’t know how to do half of what it does from a terminal and/ore scripts only.
