So I finally bit the bullet, installed a second SSD and put Linux on it to test the waters. Tested out GW2 as a non steam game via Wine and while it runs, it runs very poorly with constant frame drops. Did anyone else try? How was your experience?
I have Nvidia GPU which I gather might be the most likely culprit but was interested in what your experience might’ve been.
The Steam version works, at least on my system (I have AMD). If your account is from the launcher you need to add a parameter in the steam game properties to open the login menu.
☝️ this - the login was my only issue, everything else is flawless
