I’m probably part of the problem because I got the survey on my Mac and not my Linux machine…
Most of my games work right out of the box, and the ones that have problems are ones that I’d also have to fiddle with for more than a 1-minute check to ProtonDB are ones I’d have to fiddle with on Windows. However I also do not touch anything with online multiplayer or anticheat, and I know games with kernel-level anticheat tend to not handle Linux well on anything but a Steam Deck.
I swapped a PC I had mostly for gaming over to Linux. I’m having a pretty nice time.
As for piracy, I know pirated games that need to be emulated because they are originally Nintendo Switch games or something work well. No idea for pirated PC games.
