Maybe you're going for more esoteric titles, or maybe some with invasive anti-cheat software, but just to add another, opposing point, I haven't had much trouble since switching to Kubuntu.
How many times did you open terminal up to get a game working?
If it’s more than zero then it isn’t user friendly or accessible.
I said not much trouble, not no trouble, but that being said, zero times. Issues I've encountered have not been related to getting a game running.
Zero.
Steam doesn't require any terminal opening, the hard part are shitty Windows games that pop up boxes to install extra stuff because for some reason they can't install it when you install the game.
Zero. Everything is done though Steam.
I mainly play indie titles, but actually zero times so far. Steam really does everything for you nowadays
