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.

Open source, more modern, Ultima Online client. Still need the original art files. https://github.com/ClassicUO/ClassicUO

The new Valheim update was pretty fun. I also like playing CS2

Has it supported Linux more or just adding more content?

CS2

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

[–] unce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Just more content. The ashlands update added a new biome to the game with some fun stuff. Valheim has been running well on Linux for a long time.

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

My top answers are of course Kerbal Space Program, Dwarf Fortress and Stellaris.

However, all those have been mentioned already, so, to add something new to the list: Pathfinder: Kingmaker. It is currently my favourite cRPG.

Edit: Since you mentioned "Great Linux ports": Kingmaker has a game-breaking bug in the Linux version regarding Gamepad input. However, as long as you play it with mouse and keyboard (as the gods intended - insert PC Master Race meme), the Linux version is working perfectly fine. However, if you plan on playing it on the Steam Deck, you might want to play the Windows build.

Space Station 14, seriously one of the best games I've played.

Minecraft and Factorio.

[–] Psyhackological@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

Great ones!

Since no one mentioned XCOM 2 I'll pick that. For some reason it only lets me play it with War of the Chosen expansion, though, and it's very difficult. But I have fun getting my squad wiped because I'm masochist like that.

Paradox games! Stellaris, Victoria 3, CK3, HOI4, etc. They just make the effort with all their games and it's great
