Not judging, just curious.
What games are those? In the last 12 months I tried 151 games on Linux. All of them worked, only 6 required tinkering.
The fact they mentioned "anti cheat", it's going to be your modern online multiplayer games. It's going to be games like Fortnite, PUBG, Call of Duty, Battlefield, etc.

I would still like to know which and why. Usually there are alternatives out even for those multiplayer games. Example -> all the Valve Games / Blizards Games are good too ;)
Sure, there are alternatives for the games I listed, but if all your friends are playing any of the games I listed, you don't have many options for Linux outside of something like Shadow or GeForce Now, which admittedly is a pretty solid option for online-only games if you live near their servers.
