I think it's nice, but can be a pain to jump through the hoops when trying to install a more complex titles. Sims 3 runs great under Wine, but Play-on-Linux actually makes it kind of cumbersome to install the half-dozen expansions. It's rare that a GUI can be less intuitive and user friendly than CLI, but it is.
