I hate to say it but I haven’t had much luck gaming on Linux. Long time Linux user (bounce between Ubuntu and arch type distro since before 2008).
I haven’t had much luck getting may games working at all on Linux (fallout, Skyrim) or running well (City Skylines, KSP). I’ve followed plenty of guides but have limited luck, so not sure if it’s my aging CPU/GPU or what.
I would like nothing more than to use Linux as my only OS but I have limited time to game (less than 4-5 hours / month), so I’m stuck with windows since I can still quickly fire up games there.
You are using Proton I assume? I haven’t gotten around to installing Linux desktop so I can’t speak for much outside of my steam deck. But I haven’t had any issues playing games other than not being powerful enough for most games on high settings. Even “not verified” titles usually run just fine and if they don’t, like Recetear having audio issues, I just had to find a different proton version or something. Games with native support obviously worked great. I have heard that GeForce cards are a crapshoot on Linux though.
