From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Image your system before you install the games, or keep two windows installations around maybe?
that is of course an option. not my cup of tea though. if I need to do things like that to play some games, I'd rather not play them at all and put my time into games from devs which don't actively sabotage linux compatibility. That doesn't mean I don't miss playing for example pubg or valorant
