In EA in windows 10, I purchased Mass Effect legendary edition. Is there any way that anybody knows to transfer that over to steam? (lemmy.world)

I ask this because I’m in the process of moving fully to Linux mint and have a steam account in Linux. I don’t think EA has a program that runs natively in Linux. I’m wondering if there isn’t a way to grab the windows install file for legendary edition of Mass Effect and install it onto my Linux system understeam.

Or maybe there’s a more efficient way that somebody knows of to do this.

Proton is built into Steam. So simply buy the game on Steam and install it. Steam does the rest. You might want to look at protonDB and see if there’s any recommended launch options for the game.

IIRC, Linux users also have to go to Compatibility under Settings and turn on "Steam Play for all titles" or Windows-only games in your account won't show up.
