Another thing I’ve liked about linux. The community is amazing, and I find games I never would have heard of otherwise! What are some games you’ve found solely because of linux?

For me,

    I mean, I get not having a particular loved series in the genre or having older games, but I don’t know about being underrepresented as a whole. There’s a lot of stuff on Steam.

    Like, okay, take fighting games.

    Assuming that this list is indeed a complete list of Switch fighting games:

    https://www.nintendolife.com/games/browse?system=nintendo-switch&genre=fighting

    Then there are 75 fighting games for the Switch.

    There are 2,230 games tagged with “Fighting” on Steam.

    EDIT: In fairness, some of the stuff tagged as “Fighting” on Steam extends beyond what I’d call the fighting game genre, includes stuff like beat-em-ups, but that’s still only partially offsetting the numbers there.
