Y'all, for real, I was on Windows for gaming. Gaming on Linux really does seem to "just work" now. I'm using CachyOS. It just works. The only tweak I had to do was to tell Helldivers 2 to use the vanilla version of Proton instead of Cachy's version. So literally if I was on a more traditional distribution I'd have to do less.
I was absolutely amazed that the new Overwatch game (Marvel Rivals) ran out of the box with GloriousEggroll v23. Kind of a wild sentence.
Same! I thought I wouldn't be able to play any competitive PVP games!
Mostly you can't, glad that one runs!
The issue though usually (just for clarity's sake) isn't that the games don't run, usually they'd still run fine, but the DRM is often kernel level and nobody on linux wants that, or the DRM just doesn't work on linux (fault of DRM company), or everything works but they'll still ban your acct for playing on linux because fuck you (looking at you Destiny).
The things that don't run now aren't usually linux's fault, it's the company/DRM every time.
