Thank you my dear friend. 2018 has been for sure the year of Linux gaming.

Lovely collection of highlights you can play on Linux. Would be so awesome if all of them would also be (native) Linux games. I'm not complaining here, no worries. Just in case someone looks for the georgeous looking game called "Project Solus" from this video and can't find it, it's actually called "The Solus Project" and since Proton 3.16-5 I'd rate it platinum thanks to FAudio. Works even great in VR!

Valve gifted us something truly great this year.

I see you marked Project Cars 2. Some time ago the game works perfect with SteamPlay/Proton, but with one of the last updates the game losts force feedback support, at least in my case. In the Proton's github issue ( https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/908 ) a user reports that with Wine 3.20 this feature was corrected. Have you tried?

Haven't tried. I downgraded the game to 1.7.0 on Steam, which has working FFB

A lot of games in this video weren't native. So this is the end of native linux gaming ?

End? no, it's just that we have more options to play games that never get ported anyway and its good in the long run as it makes switching to Linux easier for many people
