Wow, Linux gaming is really close to being ready for prime time.
I just managed to run Final Fantasy VII Remake on Debian 13 (Trixie) via Steam out of the box, no special adjustments necessary. Skyrim and Tales of Arise worked just as well.
I've got to test this more, but in some ways they seemed to run even better (i.e. faster) than on Windows.
