Forza Horizon 4
After gamescope was installed and enabled, runs absolutely flawlessly - better than on Windows, even.
Tinker Steps:Set launch options

Proton 9.0-4
Half-Life: Alyx
It runs basically fine via ALVR, save for the graphical glitches, which are more annoying than game-ruining.
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-21, Set launch options
gamemoderun %command%
Graphics:Other
Frequent flashes as if the scene lighting was suddenly brighter across the entire display
Save Games:Other
Saves do not carry between the Linux and Windows versions
Do not waste your time running the native Linux version - it ships with old libraries so audio is broken and the game invariably crashed for me when getting on the train after the tutorial. Vulkan generally causes the crashing also. Using Windows version through Proton-GE and DX11 gave a smooth-ish experience.

Overall (online):Excellent
Need to go to windowed and then back to full screen with Alt+Enter twice before the mouse works. Otherwise completely flawless with Proton Experimental.
