I mean most video games just work and I game on my machine daily. The ones that dont are limited to weird kernel based anticheats and that is very few games out of the millions of games out there.

Nowadays all video games work on linux unless developers deliberately make it so they can't

I admit I don't play video games anymore. Especially not in the last year (I did have my eyes on Baldur's Gate). Perhaps I'll start Palworld in a few weeks. I got a lot of games off Humble Bundle (I subscribed to Humble Choice for a year and honestly even with the discounts it wasnt worth it) and Fanatical.

The only game I couldn't get working was the Batman Arkham Trilogy. Everything else I was able to manually force on Proton and play it. Monster Hunter World, Temtem, and GTAV were probably the games I played the most.

Mods suck for the most part on Linux. Though, I never try to mod new games.
