Looked at two games I play, AC Valhalla and Hitman 3, they don't work.
Proton "works" but does not replace Windows and never will.

The Steam console was too early, but the Steam Deck might give Linux gaming a good push (even though I expect many users will install Windows, ha) and shows how committed Valve is to gaming on Linux.
I'm extremely excited about this, but there is a very sad reality check: anti-cheat vendors have pointed out that a hackable kernel breaks their model. They will most likely aim to detect and block WINE execution.
If you change it to single player you can see 81% of the top 1000 games are compatible and 90% of the top 100 are as well.
If you don't do single player its still around 76% for top 1000. Top 10 is 50%
Also just noticed that hitman 2 (Three isn't listed for some reason) does work!
