    You can use Heroic Launcher to manage all your other games

    I will give it a try when I have time.

    like Red Alert 2, like you said. Old games don’t run well on modern Windows, so you’ll need to mess with things to get it working possibly.

    Honestly, RA2 feels like the exception that proves the rule since I probably spent more time tinkering with it on Windows and it run better on Linux.

      Yeah, I tried Commandos a while ago and it just worked (it required a patch for modern resolutions though). Meanwhile on Windows it’s a mess. They may require some tinkering, but it’s not like the Windows experience is good either. It’s often better getting away from the mess that Windows created.
