Rift on Linux: A Decade Later


It's been almost a decade since I last tried running Rift on Linux. Back then, the experience was sluggish due to state of Direct X emulation.

However, I recently decided to give Rift another go, since it's now available on Steam via Proton. To my surprise, the performance was perfect! Steam has packaged the emulation so well that almost all of my games run smoothly.

What a difference a decade makes for gaming on Linux!
