Unfortunately, while people tout things like Wine as a fairly simple and easy way to play games on Linux…the fact of the matter is that trying to play games on Linux continues to be absolute hell. Sure, some games work great out of the box. But the majority of games require a shitton of tinkering to even run, and many won’t even work at all. And your specific hardware matters as well.

I used to dabble in Linux from time to time. And I’m not even a bit gamer or anything, but app incompatibility (especially with games) was one of my biggest gripes with it.
