Just loaded up Halo Infinite on PopOS and it ran flawlessly. I’m blown away, and am now looking at moving up my plans to switch away from Windows for my desktop. The future of Linux gaming is bright!

    Wine has come a long way! Though Linux-native gaming is not on AAA studios’ radar…

      I wasn’t even using Wine. I installed it and launched through Steam and the entire process was as seamless as if it were on Windows. Valve is doing great work.

        Well, Steam uses its Wine fork, Proton, under the hood (for non-native games). Nice to hear it’s seamless (I’m too far into having customised everything to know what the out-of-the-box experience is like)!
