Soooo, I'm trying to launch titanfall 2 on the deck but it's refusing to launch
You need to use NorthstarProton to play Titanfall 2. You can use ProtonPlus to install it if you don't know how.

GE-Proton7-49 Released
There's also ProtonPlus. Unlike ProtonUp-Qt, it has the Lutris DXVK option, but ProtonUp-Qt is the better of the three.

Can someone explain Lutris in extreme layman terms cause I can't get my head around it
Lutris is a launcher for applications that run on Linux, that's the most comprehensive answer. It is highly configurable and supports scripting. Probably the most common use is launching non-steam Windows games with Wine and DXVK/VKD3D (I recommend a tool called ProtonUp-Qt for managing versions of this software). However, it can be configured to launch just about anything, including native Linux executables etc. Many popular titles will have scripts that automate the installation and setup, making them plug and play (if the script is good, that is). But everything the script does can be done manually too.

So I tried using WOWS using Ubuntu 22.04 using wine 8.0.1 and it is pausing on logging in and crashing, plz help.
Try installing it through Steam instead of using Wine directly. Mine is currently set to "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" and GE-Proton7-41, so try installing that one if none of the Proton versions that come with the Steam client works. Installing a custom version of Proton is fairly simple if you know the command line, basically just unpack it into the right folder. But if you prefer graphical tools you can use ProtonUp-Qt instead.

NEED HELP! Assetto Corsa
I'd try that since it's something you haven't tried at least. Check the first comment - all you have to do is install protonUp-Qt and then launch it. Use protonup to install Proton GE 7-55. Then, when you go to steam (might require a restart, don't remember) in the compatibility settings for the game you can set it to the Proton GE version.

Grezzo 2 on Steam Deck?
Bit late but luxtorpeda has gzdoom as an option along with qzdl for launching with mods. You just gotta install protonup-qt from the discover store in desktop mode. A quick YouTube/Google search can show you how but that's the rough gist of it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ProtonPlus and ProtonUp-Qt you can also consider the following projects:
wine - Wine with a bit of extra spice
protontricks - A simple wrapper that does winetricks things for Proton enabled games, requires Winetricks.
proton-ge-custom - Compatibility tool for Steam Play based on Wine and additional components
protonup - Install and Update Proton-GE
dippi - Calculate display info like DPI and aspect ratio
dxvk - Vulkan-based implementation of D3D9, D3D10 and D3D11 for Linux / Wine
dxvk-async
wine-ge-custom - My custom build of wine, made to use with lutris. Built with lutris's buildbot.
HeroicBashLauncher - Directly launch any Epic Games Store and GOG game from anywhere without Heroic on Linux.
vkd3d-proton - Fork of VKD3D. Development branches for Proton's Direct3D 12 implementation.
