When you see games look PooShooter, really gets you to wonder what their priorities are... You could argue "maybe they were trying to fix something else and games like that were noticed to work" but this seems like a rather short list if that's the case.

Whatever, progress is progress so I shouldn't complain.

That caught my eye as well. I anticipate that it's a case of user-feedback and how much those who encounter the issues are willing to aid in testing.

Wine/Proton developers have actually written a blogpost why did they do that (and how that benefits other games too): https://www.codeweavers.com/blog/mjo...ly-not-a-waste

That's a great little post. It goes to show that an issue with one game might explain issues with others, even if the problems manifest in different ways.
