Well you’re right on, because that’s exactly the reason i haven’t tried linux yet, i have very little time for entertainment and i need to allocate my time to the thing i felt needed at the moment, between “trying to research and install linux and try out a few and troubleshoot when stuff came out” and “play game”, i always pick the latter.
by all means wait, I recommend trying it but eventually bazzite, steamos, nixos or fedora will take so much market share that your experience will be indistinguishable from windows or simply better.

If you want to look at yourself like an upaid beta tester thats fine but id rather be working towards improving the software that is free and open source even if its alot less convenient or simple.
