For anyone wondering what this is, I'm pretty sure it's the Crooked Forest in Poland.

This is like 2 months old at this point. Why post it now?
EDIT: months not years
Maybe check ProtonDB. You can usually find game specific issues and solutions. The page for Metro: Last Light Redux is here.
Are you sure your using the official (propriatary) drivers? Sometimes just installing the official drivers isn't enough and you still might be using the nouvau drivers. Run lspci -v
find your gpu and check whats listed as the Kernel driver in use
.
The Nvidia X Server Settings is quite limited but im pretty sure that it can do color correction, but i noticed that on Pop OS the app needs some extra tinkering to get all the options to show up.
Try running it from the terminal and see if any errors show up. I remember it threw some errors about keys or smth and because off that a lot of options would be missing (including color correction).
What are the advantages of Wayland?
The big one is proper support for diffrent refresh rate monitors and VRR. Also some security improvment and long term support (X11 probably has only a few years before development stops).
What are the disadvantages?
Its still a little buggy in some cases (especialy when using Nvidia hardware) but with an AMD or Intel GPU its more then usable. Some apps don't play nice with Xwayland but its pretty rare.
How's gaming?
I haven't encontered any major issues with games. Some games might need launch parameters but usualy you can just google it and find the answer very quickly. Performance its exactly the same as on X (maybe even slightly better)
What would be the best way to switch?
On your desktop with KDE you can just select "KDE (Wayland)" in your display manager and KDE should just run like normal but with Wayland. On you laptop you'd need to switch to a diffrent WM since i3 dosen't support Wayland. Your best bet would probably be Sway since its compatible with i3 configurations.
Why have you made the switch?
I wanted to check out how well Wayland works and found that it works fine for me, and so i decided to move. Also X was giving me issues with screen tearing and multiple monitors.
The only breakages i have encouterted were caused by nvidia (and there were a lot of those). If we exclude nvidia issues then i have had a very problem free expirience.
