I have not dared to test my games with proton on Linux, but if they all work, Windows will be nothing but a VM for me that I use for the exceptions when something doesn't run under wine. Sheesh.
I made the switch on my daily driver laptop about 4 months ago. I mainly play games like Factorio, Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld, and they all work fine. Only trouble Ive had is with older games like Red Alert. Check out ProtonDB
I decided to play Commandos (1998) and it worked as perfectly fine as it would on Windows. It required a fan patch to support higher resolution and 16:9, but that patch worked fine too. The only large issues I've experienced so far are with multiplayer. For example, The Finals hadn't updated their version of Easy Anti-cheat to a version that supported Linux so it didn't work for a while, but it does now. That might actually be the only game that was an issue for me, and now it isn't.
