Well, fuck me sideways and call me Sally. I've been parroting the line "the only thing keeping me back from moving my gaming PC to Linux is MSFS". And yet, here we are.

To be honest, I haven't played the PC version of GTA V in hot a minute. That being said, ProtonDB's reviews seems to be pretty mixed.

That's great! But what about HOTAS support? Pedals? What about TrackIR?

DCS and all my gear are the biggest obstacle to dumping Windows.

Most of that would be drivers not proton if it's hardware you are talking about

I'd also add that there are probably some community-developed drivers, at least that's the case with simracing equipment. It's worth checking.

I played quite a bit of Elite: Dangerous in VR on my Saitek X-55 in Linux. Worked out of the box.
