    Jokes aside, are there still games that doesn't work on Linux? I haven't met one in over a year.

    Some games with intrusive DRM or anticheat. Also VR is pretty bad

    I'm very proud to announce that 98% of my steam titles play perfect on my gaming Linux setup. I main Pop!_os and I love it so much.

    Tarkov runs perfect but its 3rd party anti cheat doesn't support Linux so it's not playable online.

    Certain games from the Xbox Microsoft store like halo wars 2 cannot run on Linux, PC or Xbox only. Very few exceptions. Couldn't he happier. I highly recommend it

    I've had issues with vr games, mostly playable, but way less consistent and I've gotten motion sick when I haven't on windows. Though I last tried a year or so ago, so it could have improved

    Same here. Ended up deleting my windows partition altogether after a few months.

    Games that calculate a lot of pathfinding or similar in the GPU will end in a CPU-melting stutter fairly soon when run on Vulcan.

    Satisfactory is a good example or this: It quickly becomes unplayable with any halfway complex setup.

    If you've got a Linux native version, then you're fine.

    Huh, I haven't had any issues with satisfactory
