Agreed. appdb ratings are from the point of view of someone who simply uses their linux distro to install wine, and then tries to install a game. If no fiddling is required, and the game works perfectly, it's platinum even if under the hood the game has snuck in a native (and Microsoft-copyrighted) DLL. (DLLs not copyrighted by Microsoft are not generally a concern.) In parallel, people who care about making Wine run without any native DLLs should make sure there's a "purist" bug in wine's bugzilla describing what breaks if you force wine to use its own builtin DLL for the game. (And should then try to fix that bug. :-) - Dan
