All of my Steam games work under Linux. For one or two, I gave to select a specific Proton version, but that's the only issue.
Try dual-booting, and see if your games work...

Depends on your hardware. I have a pascal era nvidia card, and everything _supposedly_ works, but games have issues for me still that aren’t concrete, e.g. cyberpunk crashes in specific and repeatable locations for seemingly no reason and it never happens to me on windows. New amd cards are probably much more reliable. It’s no one’s fault but nvidias really that my card is unreliable in Linux, but as an end user I’ve been told many times Linux “just works” now and I’m upset that that hasn’t been my experience.
It's mostly Mass Effect that's trouble under Proton. It requires the stupid EA launcher, which is trash. I have a Lenovo Legion Go S and getting it to work reliably is an absolute nightmare. Most other games I play are fine.
I just finished playing through Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Linux with Lutris. The EA Launcher gave me a few issues (like not launching sometimes), but it eventually worked. I did not have the game through Steam.
