arent all aoe games on proton db gold or higher?

I specified older versions as I want my original CD image to work because it has nice translation, local multiplayer, probably lower energy consumption and is free for me.

I see DE keys for Steam for $8, but I'd need a bunch of them if I'd ever want to have a lan party.

I still search on and off every few years trying to get my old Chessmaster 9000 CDs working

would that not just require you to go through the voobly process for the original version of aoe2? https://reddit.com/r/aoe2/comments/2zyogr/how_to_playing_aoe_ii_on_voobly_on_linux_with_wine/

its basically what aoe2 users did before DE, as aoe2hd was a bad modernized port.
