Native games or through Steamplay with Proton? I'm primarily use my PS4 for games, but I have tried a couple of games through Steamplay: Star Trek Online and Fallout 3.

Here's a database of games tested with Proton, which ones do or do not work. The number of working games keeps increasing over time

And here's the native Linux/SteamOS games page on Steam:

Check out Proton, it's working, it's done for you and it's Wine on Steam. https://www.protondb.com/ Another list with supported games straight from the Steam store: https://store.steampowered.com...

Go ahead and make the jump. https://www.protondb.com/ Proton is Steam's built in Wine, and it handles everything for you. Another list with supported games straight from the Steam store: https://store.steampowered.com...

50? I have 275 games in my Steam right now and thanks to Proton I've just finished both Dead Space games (too bad they never made a 3:d) and Doom 2016. At https://www.protondb.com/ there is a comprehensible list of the games that work with Proton/Steam Play and it's currently at 3867 working titles.

Agree with parent. ProtonDB/Wine looks good on paper, but really, doesn't support most of what I'd like to play. I haven't played half of the assassin's creed games yet
I play heroes of the storm daily, which works...only on lowest graphics settings.
gta 5 doesn't seem to work either, unless stuttering is acceptable. Pretty much anything that I would like to play has some major issues.
At least world of warcraft seems to work, which I've been considering playing again.

I use lightroom for my hobby photography as well, which kind of works, but only when you are lucky.

On the home side, Linux is scary and doesn't run the right games.

Really?

Some report it broken, some report it working great. Give it a try and see how it goes for you.
