If Linux was introduced to me a lot sooner and I wasn't such a jackass that had to play video games on my computer, I would literally have switched a long fucking time ago. I've used all operating systems at this point and Linux ecosystem is far better. What you can't do on Linux is shit I don't even want to do. Most of the time.

    OpenSUSE Tumbleweed player here with an Nvidia 3000-series GPU.

    Gaming with Steam, GoG (Heroic Launcher), and even disc games installed with Bottles has been a smooth experience with VERY few if any tweaks or fixes needed.

    Except for VR (where Monado is making strides!) we are THERE. I'd highly encourage trying it out these days.

    Unless you gotta play the latest AAA hyper-competitive monolithic server games with kernel level anti cheat but...at that point might as well have a burner PC. X_X lol

    Even then some work! Marvel Rivals works on Linux fine!

    So does Helldivers 2 but that's cooperative.

    Great to know!

    Both games I really want to play. For some reason I thought Marvel Rivals didn't do kernel-level? I'm likely wrong haha.

    But I loved the original Helldivers. I just really don't want to have to install a "just trust us, bro" rootkit to enjoy the clearly excellent sequel. :(

    I don't know if it does kernel level or what, all I know is Marvel Rivals works on Linux just fine. I might be misremembering but I think they even pushed an update out that broke Linux support and then fixed it because they said Linux support is important to them.
