Have you measured the difference? Is it huge? I’m curious to understand what the trade-offs are and how many more games can you store on the same drive.

Btrfs is usually last in perf benchmarks, so I wouldn’t do it myself

Depends on the game. A title like dota will have a lot of savings (tens of gigabytes last I checked it). Other games don’t have obviously and easily compressible assets from a generic compression algorithm, and therefore will not yield extremely minor savings.
