It depends on the type of games you play. If you're more like me and you enjoy playing single-player games, then yeah you're all set. If all you play is Valorant and Fortnite and PUBG and League of Legends, you're much more likely to have a hard time. Anticheats are a special kind of evil.

I thought not supporting Windows rootkits is a positive for Linux?

BTW, LoL is playable!

League is playable most of the time but the launcher frequently breaks and there tend to be issues in-game, I've randomly had sound just straight up not work, and it tends to require a custom build of wine. It's far from the most playable gaming experience. There are much better gaming experiences to be had on Linux.
