I’m a gamer but on console. My PCs are all older so I use Linux on some of them…one still has windows for work software…it’s glitchy enough on Windows so I haven’t even tried wine.
Try it, you might be surprised. I played WoW under Linux like 15 years ago, and for a couple of patches WoW ran much better under Linux than Windows because of a bug in the GPU driver or something. The Wine folks handle buggy Windows software all the time, and might fix bugs that MS won’t bother with.
