Gaming on Linux is a lot like being vegan. Both a moral stance and a way to live a healthier life.
Also, you miss out on a lot of good stuff and people look at you incredulously asking why you're doing this to yourself. #gameing
@lertsenem I think the situation is way better now than it was 10 years ago. Heck, on Steam alone there's almost 3,000 games available.
Wine has also become acceptable enough to run most of the games that aren't natively available. The sheer availability of emulators also increases that scope by a large order of magnitude - I can play NES, SNES, Gameboy, DOS, Amiga, and Sierra/LucasArts titles.

I have issues with Steam, though, for the same reason I have issues with Windows. Its just more DRM. I can get a lot of linux games of GOG or Humble Bundle, but many are still only available on Steam.
@errant @lertsenem Yeah, it's certainly problematic in that aspect. I'm pretty annoyed that RPG Maker's Linux version requires Steam; makes for an absolutely terrible development pipeline.
