I think I've had just one issue with Linux gaming, and it was made worse by me trying to troubleshoot the error, when restarting the game for the first launch solved it out right. It was a, "have you turned it off and on again?" situations. Otherwise, everything has ran well, installed well, and was pretty seamless. All of that while running Nvidia, which is the biggest surprise.
Yep. That's been my experience too. 9/10 times it runs flawlessly, and when it doesn't it's usually easy to solve. I'm running Nvidia hardware too, and it's been no issue. I do older games on my ThinkPad sometimes too. Zero problems.
I can't run Wayland, which I think I've determined is an Nvidia thing, but that's it. I do wish there were more and better options for some softwares, but that's just the nature of the game. Specifically audio recording and CAD leave something to be desired, but there are at least some options.
Yeah I'm patiently waiting for Wayland too
