Baldur's Gate 3
It runs perfectly, except that my game lags every time I use Fire Ball (I use it a lot)
Overall, it's great and I don't have any issues. Except for the one weird lag with fireball, it runs better than when I used to play on windows.

Works just as well as I remember it working on Windows. No major issues besides using a specific older version of proton.

The game did open without tinkering, but it only ever showed a black screen, then crashed right after.

Skul: The Hero Slayer
Runs perfectly fine, no weird frame drops or glitches.
If you encounter any graphical glitches, the problem is with your gpu drivers.
