I've tried running Grim Dawn and Rise of Nations after every steam update (I opted into Steam Play's proton beta and get reasonably frequent steam client updates now) and no luck so far. I've migrated my daily driver to linux, a large amount of gaming to linux and/or consoles, and am down to a handful of games that only run on Windows. If that gap closes then I can get by with Windows in VMs only.
