How are people coping with games that just won't run on Linux (aside from leaving them behind)? Do you dual boot Windows? Virtualize? What's your strategy for this?

This will be extremely rare for me since I don't play a lot of competitive stuff, but I'd love to find a solution. I have a large library, and it's bound to happen from time to time.

    I dual boot anyway to use some features on my scanner, so I might as well use that in case something doesn't run. So far I've been able to move all games I play to Linux. Older games tend to run better than on Windows, in my experience.

    Before going with dual boot I was considering running a VM, which seems way cooler but also very tricky to set up properly with passthrough and all that.
