Linux is great about providing that feeling of discovery. New tools, new processes, new paradigm... It's the best way to breathe new life into an old piece of hardware.

If this is your first major step, congratulations! If you're a regular, great job, keep it up; eventually you'll be a grey beard with the rest of us.

Not quite "time loop", but related: Return of the Obra Dinn. I need the developer to make another game with exactly the same mechanics.

There are a lot of interesting things in your post.

First, League typically doesn't work well on Linux because Riot doesn't care about Linux users. If League is going to be a deal breaker, I'd recommend getting a dedicated Windows system for the best time.

Second, your CPU has a known hardware bug with C-states. If you've been noticing your computer freeze often under Linux, disable C-states in your BIOS.

Third, are the games you're trying to launch purchased through Steam, purchased through a different store, or pirated?

Are you able to play any of your games, or is it just these few that have been giving you trouble? If it's every game, you may not have the nvidia driver or vulkan installed. Just to be sure, you can try running nvidia-smi in a terminal, which will show you which driver the system is using. If you are unable to run the command at all, you'll definitely need to install the nvidia driver

Well it turned out great

Maybe? I mostly mean the reaction time is slow: attacking with your character requires a build up, vs most other games in the genre (Hollow Knight, Ori) that feel more responsive.

Check your server sources. It could be that Windows Steam is using a closer mirror than your Linux Steam.

Luckily I have 6 years of Electronics manufacturing experience, so the math and theory are the things I'll need to learn most of. Unfortunately, those things are the hardest part...

It's fun, but I found the combat to be slower than most Metroidvanias
