I'd like to see more Linux support for gaming too.  It sounds like it has come a
 little ways though.  I've heard of Proton for Linux, allowing more Windows game
s to run on Linux, but I think it still has a bit of a ways to go.  Native Linux
 versions of games would be ideal too - but I've been seeing more of that too.  
Several months ago, I heard of a 2018 sequel to the old PC Descent games, called
 Overload, and it's available for Linux, as well as Windows and Mac.  And if you
 like flight simulators, X-Plane is available for Linux - I've tried it, and I a
ctually think it's quite good.  There's also an open-source arena shooter game c
alled Xonotic that's pretty good (it's somewhat similar to Unreal Tournament).

And the Java version of Minecraft should naturally run on Linux too.
