ahhhhh I get ya. I didn't realize that the +Add had a "Search Lutris Website" option. I have it downloading right now. Thanks.

Hmmm yeah maybe I should. I've been enjoying Lutris quite a bit but if Heroic gets it to work, who cares I guess. I can do the research but do you know if Heroic also does all the work of extracting and running files? Through Wine I'd assume?
Thank God I didn't go all-in on Linux haha. This is already a pain.
Are you trying to run it through stream? I’m a novice but from what I’ve read, that’s probably a part of the problem. Also, the gog version has a lot of kinks and bugs worked out + performance improvement.
Ironically, as I was searching for a solution I came across a satirical Hard Drive article about MIT offering a degree in “installing NV on modern machines” haha.
Hmmm I’ll see if I can work that out. I’m a bit unfamiliar with all of this but would I save the game download to a folder within lutris and then do the manual install as you mentioned?
Wow. Day one on here and it’s already 1000x more helpful than Reddit. What a piece of crap that platform is now haha. “That game is for windows and even if could get it running, it wouldn’t be playable on a Chromebook” after not reading the body of my post.
Anyway, thank you. I’ll try that today.

I downloaded Fallout 3 through gog.com and as soon as I figured what the hell I was doing, I got it downloaded and playing great. I'm on a Chromebook Plus with an i5 and Iris Xe graphics. When I go to download NV, it prompts me to a message that tells me Wine is preparing a 64 Bit download . Shouldn't it be 32 Bit?
If it isn't obvious, I'm very novice but I think I'll eventually figure it out with some help... so apologies if my terminology or phrasing is off.
Weird. I haven’t going a single non-Celtics fan who wants them to win. They knew they were losing that game. Win it at home. Monday is going to be the loudest game in history.
