Not native but Palia is one that recently released and is getting a ton of love. It runs on Linux using lutris-GE-Proton8-13

Project gorgon as others have said is the first native game that comes to mind. Guild wars 2 runs great on proton and that’s my recommendation. FF14 is great if you don’t mind the subscription and can get through the vanilla campaign, which is a massive slog and a major setback in the quality of the game IMO. Guild wars 2 is a similar situation in that it’s a slog for the personal story, but after that it picks up and that’s only like 40% of the vanilla campaign as opposed to the whole vanilla campaign of FF14. The FF14 fanboys don’t want to talk about the vanilla campaign and for good reason, it sucks, it’s just not fun. The game doesn’t get good until heavensward.

maengooen ,

just want to add, I personally thought heavensward was just alright, stormbringer was a step backwards, but Holy Hell Shadowbringers and Endwalker stand out as some of the best gaming experiences I’ve ever had.

Find a group and play with them, having a 4 man party through the whole game is what kept me going. The free trial lets you touch the first extreme trials which are some pretty good content in my opinion.

I spent a lot of time playing The Mana World when I was younger

Not native, but Guild Wars 2 runs great on Linux and is a whole lotta fun

Also, in my experience, proton runs most things just as well if not better than native Linux games.

ProtonBadger ,

Yes, I have logged more than 14000 hours in GuildWars2, mostly in WvW maps and since it started playing well on Proton I never touched Windows anymore.

(I have no life).

I've played several on Ubuntu and do agree that Albion and Guild Wars 2 both play great and are a lot of fun

I mean… good chance just about any of them will work on linux, with pretty minimal effort.

I used to play WoW on linux, back in 2008/2009, without issues…

poke ,

Most MMOs I play these days have their own invasive anti-cheat which makes them incompatible with tools like proton, sadly.

Edit: reading more comments, it seems my experiences and likely also taste in MMOs is uncommon.

xtremeownage ,

invasive anti-cheat

Eh, I refuse to play any of the games like that. Although, most of the gaming I do, is strictly lan based, where cheating isn’t a huge concern.

WereCat ,

Example?

poke ,

Black desert, Mabinogi, and Phantasy Star Online 2 are some games I’ve recently run into that would run with proton if anti cheat didn’t stop them.

ESO runs great using Proton

FF14 works great with Proton. I would still advise to use XIVLauncher, as it is better in every way to the official launcher.

How about Runescape

nightmareofahorse ,

The OSRS client RuneLite is Linux native, open source, and Jagex (the developer) approved

nightmareofahorse , in Good MMORPG on Linux

Not sure how good it is but Ryzom is Linux native and open source. I’ll be checking it out soon

The universe is interesting, but the quality sucks. Some interesting concept, that’s all.

What that’s very unexpected

DarkThoughts ,

Not really. Standard for German game studios.

vividspecter , in Does anyone know how to install the physical CD version of Age of Empires III with Wine?

The Definitive Edition is now free to play, and buying the full game is quite cheap. Unless you have a particular desire to play the original game, that might be a better option.

DreitonLullaby OP ,

Oh, cool, I didn’t know the Definitive Edition was free now; nice. Still, I’d like to get the original version working if I can.

All the games are amazing. Such a shame they’re closing down

sugarcake , in Dev of Shadow Tactics, Desperados III, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew shutting down

I played a lot of desperados 3. You could tell this was crafted by people who cared, and not by a soulless Mega-Studio.

I hope the people find other projects to pour their skills and effort into.

vividspecter OP , (edited )

I played a lot of desperados 3.

Same. I never got into Shadow Tactics, but DIII clicked with me straight away (and that’s in spite of having mix feelings about Westerns). Hopefully someone also picks up this type of game, as it’s quite a specific niche.
