  My entire Steam library works on Linux Mint.

    Also, almost every older game, like Deus Ex or Giants: Citizen Kabuto, I can run separately under Wine. The only game that doesn’t quite work is NOLF 1. No music. (I can’t seem to get DirectMusic working properly in Wine yet).

      You can also install a non-Steam game in Steam so that it uses Proton.

  93% of the top 1000 Steam games have a Linux rating of Silver (playable with minor issues) or better.

  I’m told many many do thanks in part to the steam deck. I bet if you yelled out your games a Linux user would bite, they’re stocked to the gills here on Lemmy

        You can even connect it with your Steam account, and see all the games from your library, as well as statistics (percentage of the games in your library that work, etc.)

  some games with anticheat will not work, if the developer didn’t check the “allow Linux” button in the anticheat provider

  all other games ive found so far work great

  Converted recently and happy to find that all but one (relatively niche, command: modern operations) game I played work on linux out of the box. Decided that I’d rather claw back control over my computer and switch rather than have a single game working. Haven’t looked back since. Check your library in protondb, it may surprise you.

  What was that? I couldn’t hear you over the battle in Baldur’s Gate 3. :)

  Have you not heard of the Steam Deck? Steam’s own hardware is running Linux for gaming… SteamOS is Linux…
