      Proton is a better option unless the game needs Anti-Cheat, which most won’t work in a VM, anyway

      Personally I dual boot Win10 LTSC with fake credentials and some privacy tweaks for games that need to be on windows

      I don’t recommend going that direction. I think you’ll get better results with Proton and Proton-based solutions like Lutris and family.

      I’ve tested it, and while it does work, there are some issues:

      1. The anti-cheat doesn’t work for all games (delta force demo).
      2. Sometimes i had strange sound glitches.
      3. I had to use a second mouse. In certain games where you drag the camera (like Sins of a Solar Empire), the camera spins uncontrollably fast.
      4. It’s not as fast or responsive, but good enough.
      5. Game Pass games don’t run.

      Because of these points, I still keep Windows 10 as a dual boot option.

        I have heard, though not tried, that GPU passthrough works for those diminishingly few problematic games where a certain anti-cheat is the sticking point.
