I’ve played Deus Ex (and the revision mod) and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory on Linux without issue. If you’re playing steam games it’s basically just install and play. Especially for old games.
There’s a website called protondb.com you can check for compatibility. Gaming on Linux is so good now though, I don’t even check anymore before buying games.
Word of warning though. While modding games running through wine/proton is possible, mod managers don’t usually work or are tedious to set up.
I don’t mod too much so I usually just manually install or stick with steam workshop mods.
