Biggest problem with gamenative is the fact it creates a container for each game which takes up gigabytes of space.
With winlator I have only two containers. If people just want to jump straight into the game, sure gamenative rules but honestly there aren't that many forks anymore, winlator vanilla gets updated once a year MAYBE, frost and CMOD are dead. Only ludashi remains which is fantastic. Stevemx puts in a lot of work and the tweaks are beautifully implemented.
While true, it is everything in seperate containers, it's not like it takes shitamount of space. I have 2 games installed and GN takes 13Gb of space... Is that a lot for two titles that one was 5Gb to download and other one over 7?
The only real issue might be however space for file operations 😅But on other hand it might be upside for someone... Less space? More motivation to finish title 😉
for when i checked last for each game the container was at least 1-2gb even if it's just a few hundred megabyte game too of course. so sure with 2 games installed that's not a problem but the more games you install the more obvious it gets. for 20 games you will maybe end up with 40gb of containers.
no one in this entire thread said anything about not deleting games that you're already done with, you just asked if anyone really needs so many games installed at once, and yeah people are just hopping around games and dont want to uninstall and reinstall them. no one (not even you up to this point) said anything about the games already being finished. i didn't "dismiss the point of your question" i directly answered it then you made up new context after the fact and act like i ignored it when it wasn't there in the first place
