2016 was a great year. There are more steam games in my library that run on linux than I have time for and that includes most of my favorites.

If the drivers would just catch up...

I was pleasantly surprised at this the other day. I was about to jump in to some Friday night games with some buddies when my tower died, dusted off a gen2 i5 laptop running ubuntu and I was playing Payday2 with them within an hour; that Linux filter on my steam library returned a shockingly large list.
Yup, apparently 42 of the 100 most played games run on Linux now. I didn't say they all run well, but they run.

Same here, I still have a backlog of Linux releases to play, though I'm using GOG for that. Picked up Owlboy recently.
