Which games are keeping you on windows?

I'm curious because I'm in a similar situation, but really the only game I know isn't going to work is Tarkov.

Fortnite specifically for me. My son plays it and it's how we hang out. So, yes. I'm going to keep doing that.

I think the most major ones are

  • Tarkov
  • Valorant
  • Overwatch
  • Fortnite

If you know any other major titles LMK

Valorant and now League of Legends use kernel based anti-cheat, so they're off the table.

I play overwatch on endeavouros and I have better experience on it than in windows. League of legends will stop working soon. In general most of the games with rootkit anticheat clients will not work on Linux. On protondb you can see rankings and user comments about games. Last I checked 2% of all games are not working on Linux.
