I recently moved to Linux as a primary (and only os). I was a windows user because of games and I was so fed up with automatic updates, privacy concerns and so on that I decided to fully go to Linux. I searched a lot over internet before choosing a distrib (I'm not pro Deb or rhel or else) so I ended up with Manjaro (KDE version). And it such a delight fully customizable. Steam installed with some of my games working without doing anything "complicated", I was impressed! And then I installed lutris for all non native games. I expected much much troubles but in fact, it was easy. I installed Epic games store first and oxenfree just to test. It runs smoothly! I also installed Control (great game) in standalone still with lutris. I finished the games with only two or three crashes.
So yes gaming on Linux is not ideal it might not be with the best performances also but it was much much easier than I though before doing the big step from windows to Linux. I'll follow any new improvements for gaming on Linux and I hope in the future that every store and game will be accessible natively on Linux. And that more and more user have the choice of the os they want!
