    What’s your experience with gaming on endeavourOS been? What games do you play? Any issues with graphics or sound?

      Pretty much everything I’ve tried has worked seamlessly out of the box. Obviously, the same issues crop up as with any other Linux system: you pretty much cannot play kernel level anticheat games, womp womp. I might have installed my video drivers myself, I honestly don’t recall, but it’s as easy as grabbing them from pacman.

      For my particular setup, I’m using an Nvidia card and mostly only use Steam for games, although I have gotten Proton to work with a couple of games outside of Steam.

      In case you’re new to Linux in general, when I first installed Steam, I noticed I could only play a small fraction of my games and was disheartened, but you just have to turn on the Proton compatibility layer and you’re good to go.

      I do also have a Windows 11 VM for any compatibility issues, but I honestly haven’t booted it up in months.
