Those only count the games that have native Linux versions. Most games are also playable through the Proton compatibility layer. You can see which games on ProtonDB. For example, the Witcher 3 is listed as Windows-only on steam, yet has a Platinum rating on ProtonDB, which means it works fine on Linux out of the box. Funny enough, the Witcher 3 is also Steam Deck certified.

Of course, you'd know all this if you've ever tried to play on Linux yourself. You know what they say about people who live in glass houses.
- Meph504 4y agoSorry to ruin your attempt at a jab, but I've posted proton links in of the few responses here. It is fair to say there are far fewer games that are platinum than gold on proton. And something working and something being supported are vastly different. And this may come to a shock to you but many people who want to play games don't want to tweak setting to make that work on a unsupported operating system. This isn't a case for can you do it, this is based around the vast majority of games work fine on Linux, I don't think the average gamer would include making game specific tweaks as fine.
