    You should just test run it from a bootable usb.

    Install steam. Mount your NTFS drive which contains your windows games. If you have sims on steam use steam. If not take a look at lutris before doing any of the above.

    Your experiment ends when you’ve tested all games you want to play.

    Now: You cannot use NTFS (windows) drive for games, although you did it in the experiment long extended usage is discouraged.

    So you will need to find a way to transfer your games to a different formatted drive. (ext4, btrfs for example)

    If you don’t need that advice you will eventually run into frustrating issues.

    This is a reminder that it’s okay to enjoy garbage and accept that it is garbage. You don’t need validation from strangers. you don’t have to convince strangers that what you consume is only the most peak content possible.

    The whole arch advantage (imo) is that you have a full understanding of what’s in your machine and how it works.

    As a beginner you won’t understand and that’s okay, but you should try different things (or don’t and just focus on what works for you) as long as the end result is you doing: pacman -Qe and going “hmm that makes sense”, and imo the undesired result is going “hmm what do these all do, why do I have 2000+ packages”
