I find if it has an installer and it’s not covered by Heroic or Lutris, it’s easier to use WINE directly rather than Steam. Bottles is just doing that with a nice GUI, which’ll certainly help new people. I’ve used it to install old games on my Steam Deck that GOG doesn’t cover and it did a good job, any issues were from WINE or a component not being installed.
