I have a secondary drive with windows installed, in case I ever run into a game I need it for but I have yet to run into a game I want to play that doesn't run through wine. I guess it's because I only really play single player games and nothing with funky anti cheat, that's usually where compatibility issues happen.

Linux gaming is getting really good with Proton or Proton-GE unless it's a rootkit like Valorant or an online game with anti-cheat (Destiny, FF Online). I play mostly single player so it suits my needs. But I have a windows 10 install for audio recording needs... I don't have time to learn a new DAW.
One more thing, dual booting on the same hard drive is more trouble than it's worth if you have any other option.
You can simply install Steam. There are many Linux native games and steam has a compatibility layer that makes it easy peasy to play almost anything. Wine isn't necessary.
