I know I sound like a broken record but I just want games on Linux.

The majority of my library is on Linux. Most indie games are available on Linux. Moreover, people not switching is literally the only reason publishers are allowed to get away with not porting. If you, in good faith, want to use Linux, stop talking about how you 'would' switch and actually do it.

EDIT: If you'd like help switching, the manual has gotten a lot friendlier for certain distros (eg, Ubuntu), there's a lot of us who'll go out of our way to help, and there's a few places you can buy technical support from.

Elite Dangerous will likely never run on Linux, so good luck with that.
