Thank you for your insights!

Did you use the script provided by ArmoredVehicle? Or just the Lutris installer?

Thanks, I'll get to that once I've set Manjaro up. You've installed GW2 with Lutris?

> I'm not familiar with Manjaro aside from knowing that it's based on Arch, even though they dropped 32bit support, I don't think they dropped support for it entirely. What many distros are doing is dropping support for actual 32bit (pre 2007) CPU's, but they're still offering some 32bit packages to support old games using those libraries.

Sorry can't be of much further help, you can try asking on the https://www.gamingonlinux.com/ forums though, plenty of Arch users there.

Thank you for your testing!

And at least the manjaro wiki lists core, extra, cummunity and multilib, exactly like arch does... Did they really remove those some time later and fail to change the wiki? :-o

Well to be honest I don't know exactly. I just saw that in their repo there's no dedicated wine-32-package. Might the "normal" Wine suffice?

Hi there,

I'd like to make the switch from Kubuntu to Manjaro. Of course I'd love to play GW2 on Manjaro, too. This thread helped me finally get it to work on Kubuntu.

There are however some differences between Manjaro and Kubuntu. For instance, Manjaro has no Wine-32-Package. Will it make a difference? Anyone here got it working on Manjaro and wants to share his experiences?
