The problem for me is that I basically only use my PC for gaming and YouTube.

I know SOME games work, but I don't want to add to the list of games I can't play because they're console/windows only. :/

We've long since transitioned into the "most" games work territory. Basically apart from anything with rootkit-like anti cheat, you shouldn't have any trouble playing games at all.

I have the exact same use case for my PC and have no issues gaming on Linux for the vast majority of games. The caveat, however, is that anti-cheat can be problematic, so if you exclusively play games with anti-cheat that could be a problem for you. The only titles I have issues with are competitive shooters.
