Crap games apart (LOL is a good name for it), the only reason because Windows is better for games is that most games in the market are Windows only, no other reasons. But this is currently changing with more and more games also for Linux. Worst gaming platform is still Apple.

Anyway, at least

And the reason a lot of games are made for windows: nvidia helps companies with testing and development support, but funnily enough they help with testing nvidia hardware, and only on Windows.

I guess they only do Windows to try to keeo development costs of the drivers down? But I'm not sure.

They'll help you develop and test your AI stuff on Linux but not Windows (I don't think... Completely different team of engineers).

I'm wondering what will happen when loads of games have built-in generative AI... Will these two paths cross and finally give us Linux folks Nvidia (graphics) drivers that are actually good? 🤔
