Ok. So I have a decent setup and running Mint because I do not want the hassle of Arch. I know Epic has said several times they won't support us. Whatever, it's lame. But my son has Windows 10 and plays Fortnite and wants to come to Linux. I have no problem with my steam games.

GE Force Now works great for my needs. But he is really into it. I tried a VirtualBox and no go. Heroic, doesn't work. Lutris? Never loads. Fuguna downloaded but wouldn't launch.

Is there any other option besides GE Force Now?

Fortnite devs have chosen to actively not support Linux. Meaning, they have made sure it doesn't work on Linux, on purpose. It will never work on Linux because they want it not to work on it.

Dual boot, or no Fortnite.
