There’s some options, but it’s not something I’d rely on to work. In my experience, there’s about a 10% chance to get something running straight out of the box with Wine, 30% with helpers like Lutris. With Steam it’s more like 90%, which is about the same as on Windows.

Hard disagree. Gaming is the task that needs the most complicated setup with lots of pitfalls – kernel version, GPU drivers, X11 vs. Wayland, even your DE can affect how many issues you’ll have. IMO if you want to play any games at all, use a distro set up specifically for gaming, to let someone else do all that work for you. For all other tasks you’ll do with your PC, a “gaming” distro will be just as good as any other.

Gather round while I sing you of Wernher von Braun, A man whose allegiance Is ruled by expedience. Call him a Nazi, he won’t even frown. “Ha, Nazi Schmazi,” says Wernher von Braun. Don’t say that he’s hypocritical, Say rather that he’s apolitical. “Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down? That’s not my department,” says Wernher von Braun. Some have harsh words for this man of renown, But some think our attitude Should be one of gratitude, Like the widows and cripples in old London town Who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun.
