Steam Machines were the solution, but no one fucking bought any of them so the market decided OPs desire was a waste of time and money.

The OS was also very limited with focus on Linux ports of games which there were not very many at the time. Proton wasn't a thing yet. I bought two of them, one for myself and one for my brother. I tested it out & it was neat but wiped both to do clean installs of Windows 7 so could play the games we wanted.
