and even Star Citizen before they just implemented EAC in 3.15.1. Even then, the EAC implementation actually works they just have a broken logic statement on the EAC Linux client where it is treating Code 0 (i.e. a working and valid EAC) as an error and actual EAC errors as valid entries.
So honestly, have no issues gaming on Garuda or any other Linux distro and have more than enough games playable on Linux.
My experience has shown me the biggest issue is the GPU you have AMD/Mesa drivers are just better for gaming on Linux than Nvidia's drivers. So you're more likely to have issues if you have Nvidia GPUs than AMD GPUs. However that is an Nvidia corporate decision not to play nice with Linux desktop issue than a hardware issue. Nvidia cards are great CUDA compute work on workstations running Garuda. Haven't really tested the AMD pro drivers for OpenCL and ROCm yet to compare.

Finally got Steam to download RDR2 without crashing too many times. The game runs amazingly well even on my hardware. Steady 60 frames on low settings at 2560x1080 and around 40-50 frames at 3440x1440. Performance was much worse on windows.

Hmm I'm playing:
- KCD (KingdomCome Deliverance + DLCs)
- EuroTruck Simulator (+ DLCs) OOB
- Satisfactory OOB
- Scum (no Multiplayer b/c of this silly AntiCheat Malware) OOB
- Subnautica and Subnautica BZ OOB
- Supreme Commander (Forged Alliance) OOB
- FrostPunk
- No Man's Sky OOB
- Age Of Empires 2 Definitive Edition OOB
- Anno 1800 (+ all DLCs and season passes) OOB
- TuxRacer LOL OOB (native game ^^)
All of these games are working. Just minor issues at Supreme Commander, I don't get it why the main menu has about 1 fps xD (just the main menu every other menu or in ingame it is flawless).
As noted, the AntiCheat isn't supported on Linux, knowing how this crap works I wouldn't have bothered to install/activate it on Windows as well. Therefore no real difference here for me. And Satisfactory has implemented the Vulkan Engine anyways so I have no trouble there.
For Kingdom Come I had to chose the right Proton version for my Lutris, then it worked very well, like with FrostPunk. Which gave me menu and overlay glitches at the wrong version.

Can't play Warzone any more using a VM with GPU passthrough. It's probably because of the anti cheat they use, which is supposed to be kernel level. Such a shame. It was the only FPS game worth playing with friends online.
But on a positive note... now that that game is no longer playable, no need to boot into windows. All other games play well on Linux.

League of Legends seems to be running on Garuda thanks to this Lutris Script.
Still downloading, haven't tried actual gameplay yet. UI is a bit slow so I enabled Low Spec Mode.
I suck at LOL! 
EDIT: Crashes after champ selection when the game start countdown ends.

I know exactly what you mean. It’s proprietary as hell and owned by Tencent.

Nope, it goes as far as champ selection. After the countdown stops it crashes.
But my brother gave me some word of advice to rather leave it.
Xonotic looks interesting.
