I have a Windows VM specifically for that purpose. Game directories are mounted as network drives. The only issue is that I can’t use hardlink deployment in Vortex, but Nexus is making a new app to replace it that might have a Linux-native release.
I use Virtualbox’s shared folders, they appear as network drives in the guest machine. It hasn’t given me any trouble, but like I said, it’s limited to what you can do with a network share on Windows, so no links.

Mounting games to your virtual machine as a network drive? That sounds like a rather tricky workaround. Has it given you much trouble?
