Gamepass with Proton? (lemmy.world)

I've been blown away by being able to finally, at long last, game on my linux machine. Between emulators and Steam's Proton, I'm rarely if every needing to boot into W$ just for games. That said,while I can play the gamepass web streaming thing, I don't know if there is a way to use gamepass locally with Proton. Is that possible?

@Protegee9850 We're lucky that Microsoft is not making anything exclusive to their own store or Gamepass these days. Hopefully that will also remain the case.

For now the best solution is just to get your games elsewhere which I consider a win/win since that lets you play the games easily and incetivizes Microsoft to keep publishing on other platforms.
