What is your gaming experience like in OpenBSD? (sh.itjust.works)

I know it isn't going to be comparable to Linux or anything like that yet, but does anyone here do any gaming at all on their openBSD setup?

Even things like emulators. I'm just curious as to what pitfalls you have experienced getting it to work and how well it works for you.

    You can do some gaming, but it’s limited. I play a bit of Terraria and BG2 on my laptop that runs OpenBSD. I prefer Linux for gaming though.

    At least for freebsd is pretty straight forward sysrc linux_enable="YES" then install userland tools
