Which ones in particular? I have this issue on windows 10 as well. I've still not touched city skylines 2 and stalker 2. I just tried Jedi survivor, and honestly it was a mistake.
Might sound funny it's usually the older titles. The longest I have waited for was Spellforce Platinum Edition. It always ran sluggish, now it probably runs better than on Windows. Another one was Agarest, it was kinda playable but with too much hassle. Well, I usually play older stuff anyway. Surprisingly I almost never had problems with new games. Maybe only Hell Let Loose but it was an anti-cheat issue.
Nah I get that, I'm glad that it's improved so much over the years. I'm excited to build a new PC and never have it touch windows tbh.
Yeah, it's been great. When Valve release Proton 10 soon, it'll get even better (Wine 10 is awesome). It's really cool to owning your system to full extend. With ads and telemetry stuff Windows has, I'm sure they cause your hardware to wear off lot faster. Hell they even require you to buy new hardware just to install their new OS.
