What software do you need to install to play on Linux?

Question

linux

Guys, such a question, I recently installed Linux Mint for myself, the question arose of what kind of software is needed in order to be able to play simple games like CS, tanks, lines.
I installed the driver, but what analogues exist for DiretX, .NET, etc., if it's not difficult to drop names or links.
Video card gtx 1050ti, drivers installed through the package manager.

Answer 1

No
Linux and games - things are not just incompatible, they are at different poles.
There are some games that work natively under Linux (search in Steam, search in Google). There are even more some games that will work through wine - but not all, not necessarily good and not necessarily without bugs.
And each of them needs to be dealt with individually - and possibly for a very long time and with absolutely no guarantee of results.

Answer 2

Install the Steam client - it will download the purchased games for the desired OS - if there are any (CS and Half-Life are definitely there), you can try to run the rest through PlayOnLinux.

Answer 3

Install Lutris, Wine, wine mono, wine gecko and search the Internet for packages for your video card - which will handle graphics. I don’t know how things are now in tambourine-like distributions, but on arch-like distributions, some have to be picked up by hand.
