Maybe a game like terraria? It's a native linux game and hella fun!
Or if you want a more chill game maybe something like Gris? It has a gold rating on ProtonDB so should work fine. Gives u the feels too which is a bonus.
If you install ScummVM you can play most of the Lucasarts titles! All of these games are top tier (Monkey Island, day of the Tentacle etc) and you would enjoy!
One Hour One Life and Two Hours One Life (open source) can be run on pretty much any computer.
The concept is: you're born as a baby or a fertile woman and you have to gather and build to survive. Your maximum age is 60 years (OHOL) or 120 years (2HOL) and you hunt, gather, build tools, have babies and raise them. You can become the matriarch of a huge multigenerational family and build towns, buildings, farms, roads and weapons. People keep adding to it, I haven't played in awhile but I think they have cars and airplanes now.
The graphics are MS Paint-quality but the gameplay is so incredibly fun. Highly recommend.
If you like roguelikes I'd recommend Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
The stalker series has some of the best gunplay of any low-end system game I've seen.
Maybe I haven't scrolled far enough, but haven't seen anyone recommending Persona, if so I definitely recommend it, in this case, Persona 4, which I played.
There's also Fable Anniversary, the classic Xbox exclusive RPG, both games are also Deck Verified.
If you like Pokemon like games, take a look at Cassette Beasts! Very charming game!
Not an answer to your question but when you say " I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim" do you mean that the battery drains while plugged in or that you are mainly playing while not plugged in and your battery life is really short.
If it is the former then you might just need to buy a higher wattage power adapter to sustain. The power draw.
Battle for Wesnoth: open source turn based strategy rpg.
I started playing Wesnoth something like 15 years ago because I was a kid who didn't have access to ways to pay for games online. I've come back to it on-and-off years later - it's a hell of a game for lasting that long.
While it may not exactly match up with the body of your message, I think this would fit the subject line rather well:

Well steam has proton, which can run many, many windows games at generally good speeds. I suggest looking at older games and indie games, as they will run best on your Xe. For example, the Heroes of Might and Magic series, particularly 3 and 5 are very good 4x/RPG hybrids. Find interesting games then go to protondb.com and see if its 'gold' or better
Gta san andreas, works perfectly fine with the newest wine-ge and dxvk 2.2 but you can try without dxvk if your computer doesnt support vulkan renderer
Do you like ARPGs? Titan Quest is a Greek mythology themed Diablo II clone that has some nice improvements over D2. It's usually pretty cheap on Steam.
Starsector. Sseth has a really good review of the game.
Backpack hero is very cute and fun, and runs very well through proton.
