Nearly 90% of Windows Games Now Run on Linux

Significant for some, less so for others.

The games with the most problems tend to be multiplayer titles with aggressive client-side anti cheat. For me, I only play a couple of online titles like Deep Rock Galactic, which are co-op and work fine, and which I wouldn't miss all that much even if they were broken. Most of my gaming is single player, and if it turns out a game is in the unlucky 10 percent then I can just move on, because there's plenty more on my wishlist.

So, it really depends who you are. For some people that 10% might cover the entirety of what you want to play, which is a huge problem. For others, they might barely notice.

It might be. But then again only 90% of Windows games run on Windows to begin with ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

macOS wants a word with you haha

Give it time and Microsoft will soon require every Windows user have a golf ball in their throat when using Windows.

Hmm? OpenMW works great on my Gentoo machine. I didn't mean to imply otherwise. I'm in the middle of my first playthrough of Morrowind on OpenMW. (I mean, it crashes sometimes, but not often enough that it's a problem. Oh, OpenJK had a progression-halting bug when I last played it on Arch, but I got around it.)

I was saying that even with as good as Wine and Proton have gotten for playing Windows games, good quality FOSS engine reimplementations are preferable to Wine/Proton, and it would be great if we could get to the point where 90% of Windows games had FOSS engine reimplementations that would a) allow people to play natively without Wine or Proton, b) remove antifeatures, c) improve the modding scene and otherwise give more insight into how the games work mechanics-wise, d) make more options for engines from which to fork and make new games, e) let me simply increase the FOSS-to-proprietary-software ratio on my personal systems, f) let folks in the community contribute to it, etc.
