Would be cool yeah. My games are mostly the reason why I still keep my Windows (sorry Rich, but there's things a non free software do better)

Rexzooly3525yThere is no reason why games can't and won't run on Linux part from the power struggle OSs have right now, windows made is so easy to create game engines that need windows only tech to work, closed source and locked down there for making it harder to port this and that, look at the consoles the company that made the easiest dev kits one the war, so yes games can, will and do come out for Linux but only when the development team use the right tech to make it, the here is no reason a game should be 100 gig and need ever resource going, this is and sadly will mostly always be the lazy cop out wrong OS, wrong type of coding and very wrong mind set to push there games.

@linuxxx you have epic games (no Linux launcher) plus Oculus rift launcher doesn't work with Linux, MS games (they are making a Linux OS so that might change soon). Proton is making vast improvements for steam games sure but it's still hit and miss at least in my experience anyways.

Hansz7505yYeah ... my gaming habbits are the only thing that keep windows at my machine (dual boot) ... unfortunately wargaming (world of tanks/warships/warplanes) has no plans of supporting Linux natively .... and I hate fooking around with ‘wine’ or ‘play on Linux’
