My personal experience gaming solely on Linux for about two years is a 100% success rate running Windows games. Mind you I don't play anything that has anti-cheat. And maybe 85%-90% without needing to fiddle with anything.

Depends entirely on your games list.

If you only play indies and singleplayer, it will probably work out.

If you play AAA and competitive multiplayer, not so much.

Fair point. I dislike competitive multiplayer games. Also why I don't encounter anything with anti-cheat, as that's the primary (maybe only?) type of game it's used for.

But absolutely an important consideration for those that do like competitive multiplayer.
