Some severe cope you have here. I only tend to play 1 or 2 games at most in any time frame. -Maybe 3-6 a year. When one of those doesn't play on Linux, that's a huge impact on my view of Linux. -But that's minor compared to the games that couldn't be completed halfway through due to frame timing issues. Also, pacing games that experienced input lag. It's worse to be stuck with a game broken midway on a shitty limited OS than to just have it not play to begin with.

Maybe if you played games enough to experience problems instead of constantly having to fix your Linux; you'd see these things.

i didnt say i didnt play enough games to know. that is your assumption.

i just finished testing 20 in the last few months. they worked fine on linux.

and i built a simulation rig.

unlike others here : I know Steam is an app. not an OS

So i know what i'm doing.

Obviously not, and no one with a job and life is completing that many modern games that quickly.
