I haven't made the switch yet, and I want to know if Linux can run my favorite games.

there are a few options to make gog/epic games works with heroic, if it doesn't work out of the box :

  • using proton from steam/GE
  • using steam runtime
  • using protondb to know what to tweak the launch options or windows component to download via wine tricks
  • copy the game in steam.

I've seen that a protondb user posted about cyberpunk 2077 working on heroic launcher. I hope you'll manage to have it too.

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.
