This has been my experience. The only games that give me grief are either just a badly supported on Windows or use some ring0 anticheat bullshit. Thankfully, I don't even like most of the sorts of games that rely on ring0 anticheat, so nothing of value was lost for me.
The only remaining games that have papercuts are caused by garden-variety Wine/Proton support that usually get patched in a matter of weeks. I honestly haven't seen a Wayland-caused game issue since the release of KDE 6.0.1, and even the general Nvidia driver issues have mostly evaporated since then.
