I loved this game when i was young. I tried every compatibility tool, even installed proton GE but can’t get it to work. It’s marked as playable on steam.
Was ready to get Magicka 2 just to play this game with nephews but the second game has “unplayable” status so my hopes are on this right now
Follow the advice here:
Ok, i’ll buy magicka 2 and try to get it to work. Thanks, hopefully there will come a solution for making the first game able to be played too
swap to desktop mode
change proton to 6.3-8
launch the game
accept the stupid thing that needs you to launch a web browser
close the game
swap back to game modeUu, this confidence seems to come from experience. I’ll try this as soon as i get back home and give the verdict. Thanks!
How … gross…
Sadly it’s running install script directx and then the play button goes back to “play”. I even tried uninstalling and then reinstalling. I made sure to go with proton 6.3-8 but no luck. Maybe it did work in the past but right now this doesn’t seem to do the trick
