I’ve gotten Linux to work with all games I care about.
Oldschool Runescape, fully supported natively unless you have a Jagex account, then you need to download a stupid launcher that is windows only, but it works fine, through Lutris.
Other than that, I’ve gotten RDR2, GTA5, Witcher 3, Elden Ring, and more to work. Never had an issue with stuff not working. Definitely more work to set things up the first time, though

This is ultimately my point - looking through protondb, it looks like all the games I play today work, but a good few require some workarounds, hacks, or just have crashes reported while playing
Gaming is my escape from my day job of working on software, fiddling with configs and whatnot is really the last thing I want to do when I have free time to play.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m stoked that gaming on Linux is improving so much, and I deeply look forward to the day that I can ditch Windows for good on my gaming PC, but for now its just the best tool for my requirements
