I'm currently trying to get Transistor to run.
EndeavourOS, Nvidia gpu, and I have the Windows version that was free on Epic that one time, so ideally I'd like to run it through Heroic.
According to PCGamingWiki, it can be run DRM-free with the -AUTH_LOGIN=unused launch option, so that's what I'd like to do.
EDIT:
I want to be able to sideload the game files
Looking on ProtonDB, people mainly suggest setting the compability to Windows XP, and it seems to run best with Proton Experimental. One report mentions adding it to Steam to launch it there, but it's all the same for me:
Quick blackscreen with the game trying to launch, and then it crashes back to desktop.
Did anyone get it to run recently? Any other ideas I might've missed?
I guess PCGamingWiki lied to me :|
Still though, when I download and install it „officially“, I can check the box to run it offline before ever starting it, and it runs just fine.
I can also click download but then import my existing files instead, and it also runs.
God dang it
The information was added to the wiki by an unregistered user, though most games on Epic at the time were DRM-free. This particular game being DRM-free on every other platform also makes the claim plausible.
