While I love good news for Linux gaming, this article is IMO a litre too positive. In the last part, notebookcheck picks the games that Linux distros were best in and presents a biased picture.
But the general message is positive: When games run under Linux, the performance is probably equal or better than with Windows. (And Windows has compatibility problems too).
Yap, ProtonDB give us a good picture, mostly games still have minor issues. But, I like this kind of thing because show potential. If gamedev do they homework, the Linux experience could be better performance.
You are right, these experiments really show that Linux is suitable for gaming, just some games aren't running on Linux.
Exactly. The message should be: similar performance to Windows, give or take about 10% depending on the game.
So if you're already interested in switching to Linux, SP gaming won't be much of a concern.
