Great to hear that! I need to make it finally running… (some weird audio issues)

I see!

I see.

Unreal Tournament Launcher by Epic Games

Seems funny to me that’s on the Flathub due to this.

There is a flatpak

Oh, nice!

Space Station 14 is a remake of SS13 that runs on Robust Toolbox, our homegrown engine written in C#.

That’s awesome. Thanks for showing this game!

The new Valheim update was pretty fun

Has it supported Linux more or just adding more content?

CS2

Yeah, its Linux port is superb now compared to CS:GO.

Why system requirements say something different on their Steam Page? What am I missing?

Dota 2

Out of curiosity, did you also test the Windows port? How good is Valve in Linux porting? I tried CS:GO and CS 2 and CS:GO was problematic, while CS 2 is now better for Linux.

X-plane

X-plain seems fantastic for hobbyists and enthusiasts! Good to see a Linux port.

Realism You Can Feel

Everything in X-Plane operates from real world physics. Aircraft handling, ground effect, wind gusts, and more will give you the most accurate flight sim experience possible. Try it today!

Detailed World and Atmosphere

As you explore the X-Plane world, the weather, water, light, 3-D forests, and everything around you add to the immersion.

Analyze and Refine Your Flying

There’s no end to the customization you can make to your flight simulator experience. Adjust your approach scenarios, get real-time feedback, and use tools like X-Plane’s replays to study and improve your skills and confidence over time.

Super Tux Kart

Yeah, that’s the classic one. It would be weird if there wasn’t a Linux port for something “Tux” related.

Space Station 14

Interesting that it hasn’t come out yet. Did you play demo / playtest or what? I’m glad to see the Linux version.

Yeah, but the default keyboard controls suck. And I think there is somewhere in the game “every time you fall and die - it’s a progress” or something like this.

Rimworld!

I see many of you in the comments section. I will probably try it at some point. :)

Doom

Which one because I don’t think this Doom you meant?

OpenRCT2

I tried it to work on Linux but no luck so far. :c

and Unreal Tournament

I see 2nd mention of this game. Could you link it with the Linux native port?

So it’s a biiiig rabbit hole, then.

Well, Factorio price policy says that they will never have a discount for their game. Full price only so you’re committed.

it’s super okay at about 20/25€ once a year, maybe twice, bur if you’re late to the party it’s a whole lot of cash all at once!

Yeah, exactly.

exactly why paradox introduced a subscription for Stellaris’ DLCs at 10€/month

I didn’t even know there was such a thing. Sucks, though.

From the Depths

Oh, there is a Linux port. I have never heard of this game, but it seems like some Lego game that you build voxel vehicles. How many hours do you have on Linux with this game?

Over 1000 unique components allow you to build and command voxel vehicles from the deep ocean to outer space!

No Besiege fans in here>

You are! I have this game on my wishlist due to reviews and native Linux port.

This game always amazes me with “fuck, no I cannot do that”, but after trial and error I get better, and I know I overcome my skill issues.

Ark survival evolved

Sure, but I don’t see any native Linux port. Only Windows and macOS.

Life is Strange 1

I completed it on Windows before I knew what Linux was. I didn’t know there was a native Linux port, thanks!

UT2004

Unreal Tournament 2004? Since when has it native Linux port?

It’s made by 2 brothers who said that is their life’s work.

That’s a great curse to have.

True, when Proton enabled it’s hard to tell, but you can filter it.

And another one!

Unreal Engine 5 seems fine, but it’s backed by Epic Games that despite Linux users. But that’s understandable. The game engine is not an easy thing to do and maintain.

Many Rimworld I see! How many hours do you have in it on Linux?

DirectX is a set of APIs for game and multimedia development on Windows, whereas X11 and Wayland are display protocols that manage how graphical applications are rendered and interact with the desktop environment. DirectX is more similar to Vulkan in terms of providing a low-level API for high-performance graphics rendering or OpenGL.

Everything that is good about 90s FPS crammed into one free download.

Never played it but totally agree!

Croteams Serious Engine

Oh, nice. I didn’t know that!

Thanks for the feedback!

There are so many comments that I get rate limited. This will take a while, so I can read and answer every comment that I got.

Too many requests, try again later.

Good to know, you encouraged me to it then! But after all of these updates, the game is huge!

Oh, yeah, last time I tried it I had this issue with audio.

But you were asking for my favorite game with a native Linux port, not for the game with the best Linux port :D

Yeah, that works. 😆 Still, I was looking for the almost perfect or even better Linux port compared to Windows’s that I have never heard of.

So what’s the latest and greatest source to download it and play it? Could you link it here?

Tomb Raider 2013

So much better graphics and performance with Proton.

Interesting to see. The latest Tomb Raiders also have Linux native port, like Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition. Maybe they neglected it back then.

Just a small delay. 😉

OpenTTD, Dwarf Fortress, Minecraft

Let me link these, so anyone can check them out!

1. OpenTTD - amazing reviews for the free game from 14 Mar, 2004.
2. Dwarf Fortress - bought it, I have not played it yet, though. I know it got Linux port not so long ago.
3. Minecraft - I know this childhood gem, but I hate to have a Microsoft account on Linux and I know there are some launchers. Still hate to play for me single-player game with an account.

Nice! Shame that Borderlands 3 does not have it and you need to run it through Proton. :c

Yeah, but I heard it’s one of the games that you need to have opened Wikipedia on the 2nd monitor.

I know, but I had some issues on PopOS 22.04 (Nvidia) X11 with Dual Monitor setup. :c

I will probably come back to it, though.

I see X11 and Wayland as display protocols that tell to render things on the screen, for example to Desktop Environments like Gnome or KDE Plasma. X11 wasn’t originally designed for this purpose, and its codebase is very messy and ‘hacky,’ which led to the development of Wayland.

in short.

I have 118.7 hours in the last three years, haha. I’m aiming for 100% achievements with Vanilla gameplay. Then some mods. Then maybe Factorio 2.0.
