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.

I just noticed I can buy Mass Effect Legendary Edition in steam for $5.99 to run in linux until the 20th of this month. Rather then trying to install extra software just to play the game... I'll just rebuy it .. if it were like $50 or $60 I'd think nah I'll get it working. but at $5.99? sheesh I should have checked that first. Time = Money.

I thank you for the link though. I'll definitely read up on lutris in case I need it for anything else..

EA games require the ea.app even if purchased through steam... fyi.

True, but it usually run just fine with Proton.

Yeah not saying it won’t. OP was just trying to avoid ea app from what I gather.
