Don’t know what games you are playing, but I game myself quite heavily and doing it exclusively on Linux. Steam proton has changed a lot of things for Linux gaming. Only issues are with anti cheat. So if you are playing single player you are good to go. Multiplayer can be difficult, it depends on the game. I have 200 hours on Apex in Linux.
Yeah, anti-cheat/multiplayer is the biggest hurdle to go for linux gaming, as well as VR. They’re the two things that continue to hold my kids in Windows, for now. I hope that someday they’re remedied and I can move them into Linux systems for gaming, but for now, it’s just not realistic, sadly.

A lot of anticheat actually works pretty well now, it’s super cool how much Valve continues to push Proton development forward
