No need to figure out WINE. Steam will figure it out for you. Just click the Play button.

Linux today is VERY different from Linux 10 years ago. The switch won't take a whole weekend like it did for me when I first tried Linux many years ago. Just install something like Linux Mint (the most user friendly and stable Linux distro) and the set up will be as easy as something like windows or macos. You never have to touch the terminal if you don't want to.
