Steam Deck and Proton have done wonders for Linux compatibility efforts.

However looking at NEW releases I actually want to play, many launch barely working on windows let a lone via proton / emulation. My back catalog has great support but we need more titles launching with official support.

The worst thing has to be all of the "launchers / game stores" JUST GIVE US GAMES!

Even "good" companies like BG3 makers. Are making it harder to play without signing into their launcher.

There's an extra screen now, which is extremely unintuitive to get to, to skip their launcher sign in :(

Just add this to your launch parameters:

--skip-launcher
