From my understanding, at least one other necessary component is dxvk, and that wine is not enough.

If I dont use lutris or some other manager, how can I game on linux? do I have to configure dxvk? do I need soemthing else too? vulkan?

Is there a guide that explains it?

    afaik you need dxvk in the actual wine prefix, just having it on your system doesn't do anything.

    I had installed dxvk from AUR and didn't get why it wasn't doing anything, turns out the point of having dxvk on your system is for symlinking it into your wine prefixes so you don't have to get a dxvk installation for each prefix individually.

    when I found that out I just removed dxvk package and got installed dxvk directly to the my prefix with winetricks, because I only use two wine prefixes anyway (one for vulkan and another for games that have to use opengl)
