Nowadays it's rare that a Windows-only game that I want to run doesn't run flawlessly on my Linux machine (through Proton/Wine). I wouldn't recommend going outside of Steam though unless you're willing to do some troubleshooting.

Try running COD Warzone on Linux and not get quarantined to cheater-suspect lobbies.

Ah yes, apologies that's an important caveat I forgot to include.

Games that use anti-cheat are a mess on Linux. I don't play any of those games, and if you do then you're likely to run into some trouble with Linux-only.

Yeah anti cheat sucks overall tbh. I loathe giving kernel level access to a random video game’s anti cheat system.

Short of dedicated hardware (Xbox/ps) I’m not sure what else could be done.
