I've been perfectly happy on Mint since switching over a year ago. The few games I play run just fine (FO4, FOLON, Portal, and such), and the other apps work too, GIMP, Inkscape, LibreOffice, Blender, etc.

In spite of the recent post about which Linux distro to recommend, and seeing many no longer recommend Mint, I'll stick with Mint. It just works.
