This is sort of my ballpark. Generally, I play new games on PS5. When I'm playing on the computer it's either something on RetorArch or an older PC game (case in point, I'm currently playing a modded Heroes Of Might and Magic III on Linux).
For older games, I found that it runs as well as on Windows, sometimes better. When I had a Windows machine, quite often I had to tinker with compatibility mode to get shit to run properly, while on Linux I've been having no issues.
You mentioned OldSchool RuneScape, and for that you can just install the Steam version directly. Seems to be fully supported by Proton with no issues [0]

- Night_Thastus 4y agoRegarding OSRS, there is a very popular user-made client called Runelite. Going forward, it will only work when launched through the Jagex launcher. So most players will be stuck with Windows. The Steam client is improving, but it's still nowhere near as functional.
