I know, lame post, but I wanted to say that Linux gaming has gotten soooo much better, to the point that I honestly think my games are running better than on Windows. I’ve played so many games, but notable ones are Halo: MCC, MS Flight Sim 2020, Satisfactory, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and right now I’m starting a full playthrough of Dragon Age.
Dragon Age is notorious even on Windows for being a pain because it’s such an old game. You have to install the 4gb patch, and even then it’s a bit rocky. Not on Linux though! I did have to install PhysX but I googled it and saw it was 2 buttons to install on Linux! Now it’s been rock solid and stable, with no crashes.
Linux gaming may have a high bar to learn, but that bar is constantly getting lower! Exciting times!
Do you have an AMD or Nvidia? Because I’ve heard that even though it’s gotten better in the last year, Nvidias are still evidently a pain in the ASS on pretty much any Linux distro.
I’m on a 3060 on popOS and I’ve literally had one driver issue I had to rollback in the year I’ve been daily driving it.
I have an Nvidia card and it’s going great. I don’t know what people with trouble are doing to encounter problems because I’ve been using nothing but Nvidia cards since the early 2000s with Linux and I’ve never had issues.
