A video for any doubters that Linux gaming is better than Windows in which it DESTROYS Windows by 25% in AC Odyssey. To put it in perspective, 25% improvement is like getting a new GPU. You can save $600 and instead use something like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for free.

DISCLAIMER: I don’t really care to make Linux look better but I did a video some days ago and EVERYONE (on Reddit) told me Linux gaming CANNOT be faster or smoother. This is the proof it’s both and more videos will be coming.

    Linux gaming is definitely not a mess. XD

    But beyond that, I don’t care how Linux performs in games. I play CP on RT Ultra in Linux while on Windows it has double the performance. Too much of a hassle to reboot while Linux has liek 30 measurable advantages.

    I just want to dispel the myth that Windows is better for gaming, cause it’s not.

      Windows is more easily compatible for gaming, generally, and for 90% of people that’s all that matters. Specifically various anti-cheats do not play well with Linux.

        I agree about the anticheat games. Beyond that if you don’t play some extremely niche 1995 game, Linux will most probably work fine and better on an AMD system.

          Yeah, I’ll agree with that at least. Issue is how prolific kernal-based anti-cheat software is in multiplayer games. Hopefully some day they’ll become more generally linux compatible. Make that happen and get Playniteno not Lutris ported natively to Linux and it’ll become my daily driver instead of just my development station and webserver.
