    So my parents bought me Acer Chromebook 15 for christmas and i don't know if it's possible to play dso on it. Can someone please help me with this. I really want to play dso but i just don't think i can with a chromebook. And I know that chromebooks aren't made for gaming.

    Afaik, no, unless you can either get wine to work (requires intel processor I think at a bare minimum) or you dual boot it and install an OS that play the game.

    Me neither. But it should let you play windows games on certain linux based systems.

    - Open Google.
    - Query 'how to get wine on a chromebook'
    - Press I'm lucky or open the first link after search titled 'how to run or access windows programs on chromebooks'
    - Scroll down to skip the 'access/remote' part.
    - Follow the steps to install wine.

    Get tired. Get some rest. Try again. Get some sleep. Install it. Try to run the game. Fail. Get here with the issues you are having.

    Latest verified release is r161_27 under Debian GNU/Linux 9x. That was long long time ago. You gonna be lucky to get it working)

    Long story short: No.

    Long story long: Read Sebastian's post.

    Trying to play this game with anything other than Internet Explorer or the client is more trouble than it is worth.
