Let’s leave Steam and other launchers and distribution platforms alone a bit. Also lets stop discussing game engines for moment …

  • What are your favorite games that run natively on Linux and what genre are they?

Would be cool if you could write a few words about the game and why it’s your favorite game.

    • Europa Universalis IV - by far my favorite grand strategy game; most Paradox games have native Linux support
    • Factorio - I bought it when it was in early access or something straight from the developer, and they had Linux support the whole time; at the time, it was pretty much the only factory game, and it was groundbreaking
    • Black Mesa - fan made Half Life remake, and it’s fantastic; again, played before the official release and it had Linux support out of the gate

    Aside from the first, these aren’t my favorite games I’ve played on Linux, just my favorite Linux native games. With Proton/WINE, I’ve played tons of Windows games on Linux.
