beyond anti-cheat and "just came out" there's one more category that often doesn't work: not-new, obscure games.

Anything that isn't pretty new and/or pretty popular may need to you run through some hoops to get running right.

If you like jumping from game to game a lot, I wouldn't recommend Linux, but if you stick to a few and play them for a long time (and you don't mind the extra work it is to learn a new OS) I think it would be worth making the switch.
