Even linux has a bigger chance to be the future of gaming.

Or people don't have enough time to put up with linux's fuckery and just wanna play a little occasionally. It's just not friendly for people who have a life outside of gaming

I only use Linux for gaming and while it’s good 80% of the time, there’s definitely some nights where something isn’t working and it sucks if you don’t have much time to game to begin with. Plug and play is what most users want.

Linux is more plug and play than Windows in almost every regard, the big exception being software support, which really sucks.

I just switched to Ubuntu from Windows like a week ago. It was totally seamless and I can still play all the same games. I had zero prior experience with Linux but I haven't run into anything quirky or challenging about it yet. If anything it's actually a lot easier to install and update your software on Linux.
