Does this trick actually work?

      Try a little Proton. There’s also Lutris. There hasn’t been a game I own that I haven’t been able to play on Linux.

        Unfortunately, two of my most played games (R6:Siege and Cod MW2) can’t run on linux, and last time I checked Visual Studio also.

        Proton is amazing as long as you don’t get bit by anticheat, which thankfully is getting better.

        Thankfully I don’t play many games with anticheat so almost the entirety of my game library runs on my Linux install.

      Yeah, that sucks. I’m not much of a gamer myself. I know there are workarounds, but I probably would stay with Windows for games too if that was the case.
