Most AAA games run on Linux, it's mostly the anti-cheat ones that refuse to enable Linux support that don't. Sadly, there's nothing Linux devs can realistically do to fix that, it's something the devs need to do.
I try to mention this caveat in most "Linux > Windows" threads. It's important to know what works and what doesn't, and why.
