The thing is alot of people who work really well in the windows environment and have been doing so for a while will now have to face both a new environment and new tools. Then there is the problem of time ... If you are trying to work while also troubleshooting your OS with none of the tools that you know how to troubleshoot with it could be frustrating.

I made a custom icon theme that combines the best parts of my favourites

By that do you mean how to set icons for certain folders irrespective of theme? You need to use the gio command

gio set folder-name metadata::custom-icon-name icon-name

# In your case it would be something like
gio set Games/ metadata::custom-icon-name folder-games

Not only does this make it so that no matter what icon theme you use the icon will change according to the theme, but you also do not have to go icon hunting in a bunch of directories.

Edit: I just saw that you meant using XDG catergories, maybe the gio command can still help? I mean you could theoretically change any metadata field so maybe that helps.
