There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time. (lemmy.world)

I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

My son does tmodloader via steam, but I think its native Linux. Works without issue.

I play WoW and run Trade Skill Master (in the same wine ~~bottle~~ prefix). I also run RaiderIO/WoW Up/CurseForge (Linux native).

I had issues with mods for The Forest and Sons of the Forest. Never got them working.

FF XIV DPS meter worked after a lot of tinkering. Had to go to a specific discord to get the info as the modders didn't keep their READMEs in GitHub up to date. Wish that shit was searchable.

So, it's a mixed bag in my experience...
