    A third party ported a game to Linux then stopped keeping it up to date with the Windows version. Your versions have to match for online play, so to play with your Windows buddies, you have to force it to use the latest version on proton. But guess what, the save data is separated between platforms, so you have to create your character again and lose your story progress.

    The game is Borderlands 2 BTW.

      Civ VI has a Linux build, but one of the DLCs does not. If you install the “complete” pack on Linux without forcing proton, it will just silently skip it and you’ll be left scratching your head about where that content is.
