Linux does have very good tools like Qt and Python and other languages though.

how I can solve this?
If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, it's yours. If it's run over by a car, you don't want it.

It's proprietary software, based on Wine and is definately a client program you download and install. It's subscription based though, so you can have a version that you never update and only pay for once. Otherwise, it's $5 US a month for continuous access to upgrades. It works pretty well, but not every game is supported. I finally dumped Windows at home completely and bought Cedega so I could play those games not available as native in Linux. I would prefer native games, like Neverwinter Nights, but not every game manufacturer makes the effort to make native versions...
