1 year agoThey are particularly annoying on the Steam Deck and other handhelds where not being online is common.
Anyway, I dislike it in general but like you I’ve put up with it in some cases (see the Hitman series).

Not quite what you are asking for, but here’s a list of source ports of commercial games, most of which have Linux ports.
Oh and I’ll single out The Ur-Quan Masters as an older source port of Star Control II. Old enough that the port itself is nostalgic for me, although it’s still being updated by the looks of it.
I prefer the way XMonad handles multimonitor workspaces, but left for Sway due to wayland support.
It’s the power usage and physical space that puts me off those kind of solutions. Of course, that varies a lot based on your living circumstances (location, whether you own a house, etc).
