There's Two Main Choices:
Packages....
Choose Pacman for rolling release, bleeding edge. Pick aptitude for servers and pick RPM if you want something that 'just works'.
Desktop....
High end machines with lots of fancy features and ease of use pick a full DE. WM is good for speed and low-end hardware but harder to use.
So for gaming.... Pacman? I thought mint and kubuntu use aptitude, and was under the impression those are two of the better gaming distros.
I hate windows, but am sick of trying Linux every 5-6 years and finding out that I cannot get half the games I play to work. Admittedly, with you guys I might not be going it alone this time.....
Steam on linux has tons of games. But not all of them (Baulder's Gate 3.)
I play Baldur's Gate 3 on my Fedora KDE Linux system just fine.
BG3 running fine on my Ubuntu box.
