Is there a service or knowledge base somewhere that can help you find the highest rated games for your hardware?
Background: I don’t have much time for games and just installed Bazzite on a few years old ThinkPad. I would like to play some games on it but don’t know what I can expect to be playable. I see tons of “will it run on steam deck” info but honestly couldn’t even figure out where this computers performance lies compared to a steam deck. This should be easy. Just type in specs, maybe filter genre and say “sort by meta score” or “sort by steam rating”.
Proton DB
This is a great resource but tells me nothing about whether or not I’m likely to have a good experience on my device.
You can filter by distros once you click on the game. Its not as convenient as filtering by distros and getting a list of compatible games but its something. Unfortunately, I dont see too much Bazzite on there. Maybe filter by whatever is upstream (I think arch?)
Bazzite is based on Fedora.
OP is probably mostly running into hardware, rather than software limits. While ProtonDB does include hardware reports, it’s made to check Linux compatibility primarily, and other benchmark sites will be better suited for OP. Most single player games should run well on Linux now.
My mistake, ether way they asked for a db of compatible games and thats what I linked
I’m sorry, you’re right it is another important piece of the puzzle and my comment didn’t really add anything.
I would say clarifying Fedora upstream is important. Since there is no Bazzite option on Proton DB and I know nothing about Bazzite.
