You click the game on Steam, click "install". That's the same on Windows or Linux, the client doesn't change.
Going from 144fps to 2fps sounds like a graphics driver issue to me, what was the problem then?
uh... ok. It really is that simple, I play games everyday on Linux and that is exactly how I've installed 100s of games, so I'm really not getting it... Are you talking about enabling Steam Play in the Steam settings or something?
I don't know why you are telling me this, I'm not the King of Linux or anything. Just thought I might help you with your problem, I don't know what I did for you to unload all this on me lol
Ah, I wasn't the original person you replied to sorry. If it isn't Nobara or Bazzite, chances are most distros will require tweaking to get gaming to an acceptable level.
Then you disabled Steam Play.
