and with steam one can play even non-steam games that are "windows only" by adding non-steam game. Proton works for those too.
I've been playing The Sims 2 that way lol
not for the ones with the stupider anti cheats
i gave up on R 6 long ago. but basically all other games are playable on linux. i become comfortable living by the moral code of 'if the game doesnt play on linux it doesnt exist'
yea, though those games are not worth playing anyway. who knows what they do in the background, with root access they can hide it too.
