I have decided to switch to Linux Mint from windows. I don't use computer for work that much. And for my personal use I'm switching to Linux Mint. I have heard a lot about it. So giving it a try. I know about emulating windows in linux to play window games. But how do you use cracks and stuff?? Does emulating also access my 100% graphics card or less? I want to know about all these. Please people in my condition help. Thanks in advance :)

Ok got it.

bottles
proton
lutris
wine

I'll try one game with most different crack with each and see which works the best. Thanks for the suggestions.

FWIW bottles and lutris are launchers which will preconfigure and run your games in wine or proton which are the underlying translation layers.

Thanks this made it little bit clearer.

Also to further over explain, proton is just wine + some extra libraries like dxvk

I didn't have much luck with Bottles in the past, but this is entirely anecdotal.
