They both have their pros and cons, and for me, I think linux is better and like it more, although there’s some stuff that I wish I could do on linux so I could save space on my SSD and remove Windows. It’s not that Windows sucks so I choose Linux. The number of games that run fine on Linux is greater than the number of games I have time to play anyway, and the occasional case where I have to miss out on a game that just doesn’t run on Linux makes me less sad than running Windows would make me.”ĭemencia: “…I just like linux more. Zanidor: “Yep, 100% Linux here, and I’m even a software dev for a game company. Is anyone else like this - are YOU primarily a gamer that has also chosen Linux as their gaming OS? Also, if you are, perhaps why, as I’d be curious.” I just find Linux to be soooo much better for gaming and much more fun - I’d much rather use WINE / Crossover etc, than have Windows installed (yuck). I am primarily a gamer, it’s what I do mainly with my PC (a high-ish end gaming rig) and Linux is the only OS I use on it. LinuxForGaming: “Does anyone (besides me) actually use Linux as their gaming OS on their gaming rig(s) – are you primarily a gamer who uses Linux as their (main) OS? This question was raised in a recent thread on the Linux Gaming subreddit, and the folks there had some interesting comments to share. But how many people use Linux as their main gaming operating system? Linux gaming has come a very long way from where it started, and Linux gamers have much to celebrate.
