Akchewally (just being silly), if you mount your NTFS volume with “exec” parameters in fstab, you can absolutely install and run games on this volume. Here’s an example of my ntfs volume in /etc/fstab:
UUID=XXXXXXX /mnt/win-c ntfs3 user,rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,exec,uid=XXXX,gid=XXXX,iocharset=utf8,uhelper=udisks2,dmask=022,fmask=133,x-systemd.automount 0 0
That said, sometimes if reboots/shutdowns aren’t graceful and don’t unmount NTFS properly - it can cause a dirty bit to be applied to the drive and then it won’t mount - but this is easily fixable with linux-ntfs-tools (see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/11qezjd/correctly_checking_ntfs_partitions_dont_use/). According to this article, Paragon, who supplied the kernel support for RW NTFS volumes, kinda borked the ntfsfix tool, and all it does is clear the bit, without actually fixing the drive. They used to include the chkntfs utility in one of their Android APKs, which included x86-compiled binaries of the tool, which you can extract from the APK and use in linux. I’ve personally used this and can confirm it works as well as if you rebooted back into Windblowz and used the native disk repair. If you need help finding/getting the binaries out of the APK, lemme know.
