Not that I would know anything about this, but why not check out 1337x[dot]to and search for your title? I'm not sure what site you are currently looking at but it sounds like hassle.

Can someone give me a brief TL;DW?
I use ESDF for movement
Yikes! However, back in the day I remember using zx*? for movement on the BBC Micro :-)
Not here. I've been playing Ghostwire: Tokyo for a while now thanks to the Epic giveaway. The only issue I had was when I was setting up the wine prefix and the Denuvo DRM decided that I had installed the game enough times for today!
What happens if you manually create a wine prefix and launch the game through wine from the command line?
I have been using TW (and its predecessors) for around 17 years and have no major complaints at all! KDE Plasma is my preferred desktop and TW comes with that option as a default. Wayland is available but still has a few niggles with KDE Plasma in my experience.
TW will play both indie and mainstream games with no problem and comes with many repos of up-to-date packages. CoolerControl is a good app for setting up your Kraken if necessary. Your GPU should work out-of-the-box.
TW supports Secure Boot and should detect it when setting up. My advice for installation is to create a bootable USB stick with the network install version of TW and go from there. The GUI allows you to select a default installation or set things up just how you like them.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Happy Tumbleweed user here, since 2006!
As with any 'yarr!' software, you should be downloading it from a trusted source (cs.rin, rutracker, jc141, IRC etc.), then scan it with something like clamav. Remember that wine alone will not restrict any malicious code as it has the same access as your user.
Personally, I have yet to meet a malicious Linux file in any native yarr! downloads but that does not mean that they aren't out there. Just make sure that you use a trusted source.
Finally, if you are in doubt then don't install it!
Compiled it on my OpenSUSE Tumbleweed system last week. As with the author of the Ubuntu article: I'm rubbish at the game but it compiled and executed just fine!
DODI repacks are usually fairly reliable, though I prefer to use unrepacked where possible.
