I've tried. It's been tough with games--especially if you aren't a Steam acolyte and play a lot of games older than 5 years. I'm still going to push that way as I can. Maybe just the modern stuff I play. At which point, I could pretty easily roll back to a locked down Windows 10 for everything else. I guess lucky for me I really only game on my Windows machine, so their telemetry that I haven't disabled is going to look about like what they'd get from a game console.
On top of lutris I recommend bottles which is yet another wine loader but for a different cause. I mostly use it to install gog games as they work quite well.

There's a loader called Lutris that makes running non-Steam games/programs painless and simple. http://lutris.net/
Yeah, that's on my list. I'm going to try it once I get to a real dual boot. I have to get my hands on (buy) a 2.5" SSD first
