I have a dual boot. And the penguin works and Microsoft is still sitting around not having an update. I don't really care. But I can't game with out Windows. So, bleh.
Can't play certain games* without windows
Which games are keeping you on windows?
I'm curious because I'm in a similar situation, but really the only game I know isn't going to work is Tarkov.
Fortnite specifically for me. My son plays it and it's how we hang out. So, yes. I'm going to keep doing that.
I think the most major ones are
If you know any other major titles LMK
Valorant and now League of Legends use kernel based anti-cheat, so they're off the table.
I play overwatch on endeavouros and I have better experience on it than in windows. League of legends will stop working soon. In general most of the games with rootkit anticheat clients will not work on Linux. On protondb you can see rankings and user comments about games. Last I checked 2% of all games are not working on Linux.
I can play every Paradox Game on Linux. Therefore, I can play every game that matters. Now, if you need me, I'll be in Crusader Kings, trying to build a family tree that looks like a giant beanstalk.
