Hello I have been having some difficulty with Linux gaming on mint
A lot of games just won't work for me and I want some advice regarding if I should switch to an arch based OS instead
Or is it because I am using the flat-pack version of steam
Also I have an Intel system with Intel iris graphics

What exactly are the difficulties you’re having? Any examples?

don't use the flatpak version of steam. It's not what steam actually recommends, its not provided by steam and there is no reason to expect it to work
use the system package simply entitled steam

alternatively, grab the .deb from steam

i am very sorry for the late response. i did not know that the flatpack verson was bad i will go and get the .deb version and if i still have issues i will let you guys know thaks again for the advice.
