Wanna play Soulframe, don't wanna pay for Windows to play a game I got legally.

A VM is going to incur a pretty big performance loss. From what I've read, Soulframe works just fine with Proton. Either Lutris or the Linux Steam client should work for running it.

OP can also do GPU passtrought to huuugely negate the performance loss, but it is a rather complex process.

For 2d platformers, the virtio GPU with 3d acceleration might be OK.

Aye, Soulframe works flawlessly via Lutris. It runs on the same engine as Warframe and performs as well really. Been playing Soulframe for months on SUSE.

+1 for proton, though I think modern VM tech very little overhead these days.
