One user already mentioned VR Support.

For simmers, racing wheel and HOTAS Support can be iffy. SimHub for controlling bass shakers requires some extra finagling.

There are a handful of helpful tools written for Windows where I haven’t found a Linux alternative that doesn’t come with some heavy tradeoffs - MSI Afterburner, Voicemeeter Banana, Rainmeter are but a few examples.

Then there’s the ever increasing number of games requiring kernel level anticheat that doesn’t play nice with Proton.

Unfortunately, Windows probably going to stay my go-to for my desktop gaming PC and I have other reasons for that. Happy to have Linux on my portable secondary devices, as I can always Sunshine/Moonlight my way back to my main system for anything those can’t do.
