There are a whole host of good games with awful DRM that I can’t play. Steam is good but it’s still DRM. Not sure what you're doing wrong, but using arch with latest kernel, nvidia drivers, and I play Steam game daily on it with xorg or wayland to mostly stop using my PS4/5 again. I tend to flip back and forth between xorg and wayland, and xorg I still get odd kde compositing bugs, and wayland the compositor has a persistent memory leak that'll use all 128gb of my ram within a few days. I get lots more fps with wayland (particularly yuzu for switch emulation), but I have to restart kde every few days, which is a KDE problem, not Steam. Otherwise gaming has been great since Proton picked up, but if you do still have problems, use install Proton GE from AUR. If anything doesn't work with default, it does almost certainly with GE. If games use invasive DRM, or like Epic/Ubisoft/EA with their garbage launchers, F-em - they don't get my money anyways. Plenty out there that don't to have to deal with crappy mega company BS.
