It occurs to me that if you aren't installing it through steam it might be slightly more effort becouse you can't use a windows installer without something to run the .exe, steam should work for that too, but so would something like bottles or Lutris
Not sure we're on the same page, I have installed it and it runs, just not as smoothly as it did before.
But you're talking about something having to run in the background to emulate steam since I've installed from elsewhere, correct?
How could I use bottles or lutris?
I wasn't sure how you were installing it, if you were using something like a gog installer lutris for example could handle the installation for you, but sense you have it installed that's irrelevant
steam runs natively on linux though so no you wouldn't have to emulate it or anything
Without knowing more I'm not sure about the prefomance though, and I'm not an expert, but if you are dual booting it might have something to do with the file system you are using, I've not messed with dual booting before so I can't be sure, and I wouldn't know how to fix it either
I'm sorry, I've been confusing myself in the comments haha thought you were advising about how to get the windows version to run better now realize we're on Linux sorry!
So lutris is for running windows .exe on Linux! Good to know, and no I'm not dual booting yet just windows 11 just considering install Ubuntu/fedora or something to dual boot with and running cyberpunk from it instead of win11, or just going back to win10 and seeing if it helps
