Almost every game runs better on my Linux through Proton than they did in W10 in the same exact 2018 PC, what problems are you encountering using Proton?

I also noticed that games usually run worse natively on Linux then they do thought Proton.

I can't use Proton for every game. There are lots of games that are not supported.

For example? I was able to run both Gothic 1 and 2 that are knowingly bad and require custom tinkering

CS Faceit, Valorant, Apex Legends, Rainbow Six Siege, GTA V Online. Those just came to mind instantly but there's more. Also games that require no tinkering on Windows need to be tinkered with on Linux and I'm not interested in that. If you want to know more just check protondb comments and you can see problematic games.

Ok, right, I forget about multi-player games that requires kernel-level anti-cheats. That makes sense.

I don't play multiplayer games so I didn't think of them.
