I did the same until a few weeks ago. I then decided that if it doesn't work on Linux I'm not interested anymore. Same with games that I want to play but don't natively support ultra-wide resolutions (looking at you, Fallout 4).
The reason I gave up is because most games that I want to play but don't work is down to anti-cheat software.
- LooseMarmoset 4y agoI switched to Linux full-time a couple years ago. I had a Windows desktop for the same reasons - games. Once Valve incorporated Proton, it was all over for Windows for me. I already used Linux (Debian/Devuan) full-time at work on my laptops and servers. I don't miss Windows at all. Running Devuan right now on an AMD B450 with a 5600, 64GB RAM, and a 1080ti. I will admit that video driver updates are a little more involved than on Windows, but since I don't have a mainstream Linux distro like Ubuntu, that's to be expected.
- pxc 4y agoI basically went the same way a few years ago. It's a shame that there are still gaps, and I understand why it doesn't work for everyone. But if you really enjoy using Linux or you're really sick of Windows and you're willing to try limiting yourself to Linux-compatible games, you will find that there are more games than you have time to play. If you're willing to pair Linux with a gaming console, you get coverage that's more than good enough for me.
