Some notable Linux gaming failures for me:
Roblox. Kids really wanted me on this but I've never been able to get it to work. Technically not on Steam/Proton, but a notable failure.
Eador: It runs but the graphics are completely garbled.
Anything VR: No luck at all getting QuestLink working on Linux.
Several games don't like later versions of Proton and I have to force them on older versions. This isn't a huge problem except that it it an annoying amount of fiddling to figure out which version is working.
- inyorgroove 4y agoGrapejuice [1] works excellent for me with Roblox, simply launch games from browser just like windows. Super easy to install if you are on Arch [2] as well.

- pkulak 4y agoOne more vote for Grapejuice. There's even a Flatpak now, so it couldn't be easier to install. This is what allowed me to move my whole house to Linux. My kids wouldn't tolerate giving up the game the play more than any other, but Grapejuice makes Roblox seem Linux native. Only issue I've had (and this may only be with Flatpak, not sure), is that bouncing quickly from one game to another several times can leave Roblox instances running in the background, eventually eating up too many resources and causing havoc. I got around this by creating a little executable script with `flatpak kill net.brinkervii.grapejuice` in it that the kids double click before starting a new game.
