This would be great if native GNU/Linux games would be promoted, instead I suspect it will be used for emulators (consoles, retrogaming, and Windows) instead, like every Linux based handheld since Pandora.
all 12 of them? I would give up on hopes of there being any serious market interest for Linux native games any time soon, if ever. Proton/WINE is good enough and the industry does. not. care. about targeting a platform with a rounding error number of users. The best thing to happen to Linux gaming in the last 10 years was the Steam Deck, and that alone is more or less driving adoption.
There are several orders of magnitude more people playing on Unix/BSD derivatives than there are playing on Linux unless you count Android.
I understand his is completely different. For starters the interface being able to completely avoid the standard desktop is awesome, which Windows doesn't seem to be able to.
Secondly I get better performance with Linux and Proton on the same hardware.
It’s in the name!
