It's likely due to the game you're playing, as it relies on DirectX for performance.

The goal of choosing Linux is to take advantage of a free operating system. You could try Steam OS, which is a customized version of Linux and reportedly supports DirectX.

DirectX on Steam OS isn't compatible with DirectX. WINE can handle up to DX9, while DX11 is being developed.

You're interested in software development and believe Linux offers a solid foundation. Arch Linux is a popular choice for this. You also appreciate customization and command benefits. I've learned that DirectX11 may be available via Wine or Crossover on Linux.

It's under development, yet it might not work well in most games yet. We can't confirm its usefulness right now because it's still in the early stages.
