  • Looking deeper into this, the problem might not be related to that “EFI stub” message at all. It might be a GPU driver issues. As the other commenter already said, it’s probably easiest if you try another distro. If you want to stick to Mint, maybe try the previous version of it, or LMDE. ROG being a gaming related PC, Bazzite might be a good choice for you.











  • Pretty much this. If you have bought games from GOG or Epic, you can use Heroic Launcher to install and play them.

    There has been some talking that Microsoft might remove third-party applications, like anti-cheats, away from the kernel. If that happens some day, it would probably help Linux gamers with some of those multiplayer games. But, there are already many multiplayer games that work just fine on Linux.




  • Modding might not be as easy as on Windows, but for example, Mod Organizer 2 works on Linux. Steam Tinker Launch helps with MO2 installation and usage. Wabbajack also works after some tinkering, but you’ll need to search the Internet to figure out how to get it working.

    I have recently played Fallout: New Vegas with Viva New Vegas modlist and Skyrim with Nordic Souls modlist under Linux. Took some tinkering to get the modding things working, and to figure out where each of the files are located, but other than those, the games worked fine.

    Once you go through the pain of getting one modding tool working, you can then use it with other games without the initial hassle.
