For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

(Version 1.1.77» Fri Mar 03, 2023 3:44 pm)

Graphics

  • Added support for Wayland on Linux. To enable it, set SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland in your environment. (thanks to raiguard)

What's yours?

EDIT: Great Linux ports* not like some forced ports that barely work or don't.

Borderlands 2. Give me a mindless Diablo With Guns experience any day.

Borderlands 2

I didn't know there was Linux port of this game, nice!

There was a native release from the jump, it was always kind of jarring being able to install it without selecting a Proton version first.

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

[–] unwillingsomnambulist@midwest.social 2 points 6 months ago

Indeed - but it runs really well through Proton, as does BL2, so no big deal.

Horizon Zero Dawn runs perfectly through Proton as well. Currently playing Forbidden West, about 24 hours in, and have encountered some minor issues (occasional momentary graphical glitches, rare instances of dialog drops requiring exit to title screen), but I’m not complaining.

Sadly I found out the Linux version hasn't gotten the latest update so you gotta run it through Proton if you want Co-op with people on Windows.
