I’m trying out Bazzite, and although it does take a little tweaking sometimes, I haven’t encountered a game I can’t run yet, including features like HDR and DLSS.
Have you tried out Steam on there? I don't know if there are any workarounds to running Steam games that require Windows; otherwise I'd probably switch one of my last Windows machines over.
I've been using Steam on Linux for a few years. Check out Proton DB for game compatibility.
Thanks. Appreciate the info. I'm kinda jazzed about this, TBH. I might buy another low-end gaming machine - this one was one I had specced out in late 2020, but it's running out of disk space as gave it a very small drive - throw Linux on there, and start migrating over....I don't want to play high-end games, mostly Metroidvania type of things and my kids play mostly the same types of things - stuff like Undertale, etc.
Linux is always such a pleasure to use. I'd love to remove yet another Windows machine from my life...
