There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time.

I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.
And to say that there used to be a time when "Linux gaming" was an oxymoron as it at most meant SuperTuxKart or mindlessly watching
glxgears.Mindlessly watching glxgears is the greatest experience a GPU can render.
They're so smooth when you buy a high end graphics card.
Windows gamers will never understand the joy that
glxgearsgave usI remember when Linux gaming meant Nethack.
I mean, Nethack is still great...
Is there something like
vulkangearsnow?vkcubeexists in most repositories I guessEdit: Looks like there is a vkgears too
I know that the vulcan-tools package has
vkcubein it. Someone did make vulkangears as an example, along with some other examples, but I don't think its a published package in any distro repos so it'd need to be manually compiled to run it.Been playing Warcraft 3 / DotA and Counter-Strike on Linux since 2005. Still playing Dota and Counter-Strike. Are there other games worth playing? ๐
