Moving to Linux soon, and wondering how pirated games work with it. I know about proton with steam and lutris for most bought games, but how would I run pirated windows games over there?

In most cases, the windows version will work with Lutris.

I remember I pirated God Of War and Days Gone and they worked fine.

You need to run the setup installation, and then select the game launcher (.exe) as executable.
