Correct, but thats not really a solution as i would still need to emulate a windows OS to play the games i want.

I don't give a fuck about a negligible 117 games, compared to the thousands upon thousands that run in Linux just fine. Posting a pie chart that ignores the existence of those just so it can misleadingly pretend 37% of anything is "broken" on Linux is bordering on bad faith.
