You may want wayland to replace xorg really soon but its not happening for at least three to five years that will give the wayland team to you know fix it so its useable with games.
I'm totally okay with the current X.Org. I don't understand it, but as long as it works I don't care. Eg. Canonical wanted to replace it in 18.04.

I still prefer open-source engines (like doom 3), or Feral ported games to Wine. I believe it will never work flawlessly.

Feral Interactive are teasing something for Linux next week

Port Doom 2016, or Wolfeinstein:Old Blood these are low hanging fruits.
