Your comment is not on point.
Here are the release dates with linux support date.
Tomb Raider: 2013, 2016
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor: 2014, 2015
The Talos Principle: 2014, same day
Here are some other random selection:
Borderlands 2: 2012, 2014
Europa Universalis 4: 2013, same day
Pillars of Eternity: 2015, same day
Civilization 5: 2010, 2014
Civilization 6: 2016, 2017
Factorio: not yet released, already supports both
There is a clear trend towards more games with linux support and less lag between windows release and linux release. My impression is that the tipping point for newer games is already in favour of linux support than not linux support.
If you want to argue against linux gaming, I would argue with slightly older games that didn't receive a linux port and maybe never will.
