I am just perplexed right now how many games actually work quite well with just wine-staging 9.22 compiled with wow64 (thus no 32bit libraries needed) and dxvk through winetricks. No pipewire, no lutris, no flatpak, no nothing.

Was talking to our millenial kid the other day about how gaming is now totally a thing on Linux, which is actually huge on a certain level. When I decided to become good at *nix, I made a "first world ascetic" decision that I would give up PC games, because if I left Windoze on my hard drive I just went back to Windoze. I had to banish it.
He pointed out, tho, that linux has no kernel anti-cheat, which means the online twitchy buttonmashers will still not come, yet.

@jpaskaruk That's true, League of Legends, battle.net and other online stuff with anti-cheat are a no-go, but 99% of my GoG library is good to go. And there are some oddballs like Kerbal Space Program that run actually better with a dxvk layer than the actual native binaries and opengl.
The only thing left that irks me is Steam that refuses to go 64bit, so for that it's either flatpak or 32bit dependency hell.
