dual booter here
>1 NTFS drive with windows (and boot partition) that mint can read
>1 ext4 drive with linux mint including it's boot partition that windows cannot read
>1 empty NTFS drive that could only be read by windows if windows itself formatted it to NTFS, windows couldn't read it if mint formatted it to NTFS
I tried running a linux game that was installed on the NTFS drive with windows on it. It ran for a bit but then gave me incredibly bizarre issues such as KBM inputs not always registering, the entire desktop shrinking itself to a picture in picture miniplayer size and moving itself around the black void like gif related while simultaneously gradually increasing and decreasing it's size in equal intervals.
/g/ told me that's because while linux CAN read the windows drive it's mostly to allow users to view pictures and shit, not run complex tasks such as games.
I know for a fact it's not an issue with the installation or torrent because it ran fine on the EXT4 drive but it no longer has space for the program

my stupid question is whether my issues were becasue I tried installing it on the drive shared by windows or is it because the drive itself was formatted in NTFS which is developed by microsoft therefore it's what's giving me trouble

tldr should I keep the new drive formatted as NTFS or bite the bullet and go EXT4 even tho windows wont be able to access it?
