I run debian as my main and really don't encounter any issues in gaming.
Same here. Radeon open source drivers. VR is working, too (HTC). Most oft the time what I need to find out is the correct Proton Version (Took me a bit oft time to geht Cyberpunk running). Other than that no problems at all.
Under the Steam client? I've read Steam solved a good deal of issues with gaming on Linux but Steam is not really my thing.
Or do you run your games natively, like I described?
A lot of my games on Steam fail to run if I switch from proprietary Nvidia drivers to open, so I wouldn't count on that
Steam also carries a good deal of top shelf games; I run old and/or lesser known games.
All the games I mention ran under Mint but, because I enjoy making my life complicated, I moved from it to Debian. So...
Just a warning that Steam doesn't always play nice with open drivers. It's the only thing that keeps me on proprietary
I'll keep that in mind but Steam doesn't cut it for me.
I do a variety, as I have a few games on GOG.
Care to share your tricks?
Wine, ProtonGE, Lutris, and a bit of luck.
If none of those work,
Seems like a 180 from your initial comment.
