Good games for lains that runs smoothly (and easily preferably) on linux.
Please post which distribution do you used and if you had to install something else to play (wine, for example).
I'll start with some that i played.
>Mount and Blade: Warband
I've played on manjaro and ubuntu, both runs really well and didn't crashed even once.
>S.T.A.L.K.E.R:SoC
Another one that i played on manjaro, idk if it runs well with ubuntu, but probably does.
>Dusk
Tried with Ubuntu, it runs well, except that the game crashed once and i didn't know why, so i can't say if it's my computer or compatibility error (i used steam's Proton for this one).
Emmanuel · 2020-03-28 21:06
It's been a while since I've messed with Wine manually, most of the things from Steam work automagically now.
>F.E.A.R. 2
The first game I've finished on Linux from start to finish (on debian). Only DoF effect when aiming down the sights didn't work.
>DOOM 2016
Runs flawlessly on Ultra settings in 120 fps.
Otto Normalverbraucher · 2020-03-28 23:24
Many older Windows games can be run pretty well using Wine, e.g. Diablo II, especially if they used Glide, DirectX 1-7 (DirectDraw, Direct3D), D3D 8.1 and 9, and in such cases you should be able to use one of the two wrappers:
>dgVoodoo 2

http://www.dege.freeweb.hu/
>DDrawCompat
https://github.com/narzoul/DDrawCompat
For installing games, aid yourself with Lutris, or look up the scripts it uses to install particular games (they are available on the website).

> Metro 2033
Not the redux version, played from Steam with Proton 4.11.
Has some initial problem that could be related to integrated graphics but it runs well
Also i think the game it's not on Steam anymore
> Factorio
Runs well with wine
Dozer · 2020-03-29 15:51

Works through Steam Proton, it's currently free.

Java Edition, native on Linux. Use MultiMC to install, mod, and manage versions easily.

Redux versions work on Linux, you get the regular ones if you buy Redux on Steam afair.

installed and ran beautifully on arch linux via wine. however you first need to install the mfc dll with
>run winetricks -q mfc42
https://www.processlibrary.com/en/directory/files/mfc42/24176/
and you also need to of course use bungie's patch to allow the game to use private servers instead of the dead gamespy ones. there's also a patch bungie released that disables the CD check.

Then you want something that focuses on a mouse input, like RTS's, 4x, fps games. I can't recommend any because I never use a controller for those types of games.

I wouldn't use it for anything twitchy like fps but it's great for anything relaxing like minecraft or things that feels better with smooth or more precise controls. I'm sure it's great for racers.

I wouldn't use it for FPS's either, but I never use controllers for FPS's. Though, it can be done and it's not "bad" but may require unique configurations.

Do you think future games will be more compatible with Linux because more games will be made to run "in the cloud" i.e. on Linux servers?
Nguoi La · 2020-06-19 13:33
>>3237
There's already quite a lot of games that are "compatible" to run on Linux in one way or another. Compatible in quotes because you can mean "native" titles or titles that run with the use of a translation layer.
Today, the biggest restriction are those games with abusive anti-cheat demands (ie. Valorant, PUBG, Doom Eternal - when they added Denuvo, only to remove it because it even messed up Windows users). The second biggest hurdle would be the developers that outsource their Linux ports, which would end up making the Linux version lag behind in updates or harder for them to add new features (ie. Dying Light, Dead Cells, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided)
Cloud gaming would remove that barrier since there would be no need for anti-cheat on the clients. And we are seeing that with Stadia, releasing certain games on Stadia that would never have come to Linux (ie. ESO, PUBG).
I'm still of the mind set that I have plenty of games right now in my backlog that unless some new hot game can really wow me, I'll stick to what I have until I can shrink this list of uncompleted games.

>I'm still of the mind set that I have plenty of games right now in my backlog that unless some new hot game can really wow me, I'll stick to what I have
Same here. I hardly ever buy games, and when I do it's always old titles that are on sale or indie early access stuff that has a good community. Can't remember the last time I bought a game at launch, but the only game I can think of that might make me do it is cyberpunk 2077.

seems to run pretty well, but I haven't played enough to pass judgement on whether it is as good as the first. I have noticed that if I alt+tab or a popup window comes up while it's running I get the broken mouse behavior until I restart the game, regardless of MouseWarpOverride settings.
I am using the GOG versions.

Firewatch is linux-native.
Also, somewhat off-topic, I haven't played Firewatch yet and was planning on getting a HD CRT to play it on (since the aesthetic is apparently unforgettable). Should I continue with this plan or just play it? I'll likely get a CRT regardless, it's just hard to find any these days.
Yu-ichi · 2020-07-15 17:48

I forgot all about firewatch. What a disappointment. It was sold to me as a good, long game - It came out as a short game that was FANTASTIC for the first few minutes and then you can see where they started rushing it, and it just soykaf all over the place.
2/10. CRT? It won't matter.

I've been playing planescape: torment, which I love, it's like a fever dream. But, obviously, no sound, which I kind of appreciate because it seems like a game that a deaf person would privately cherish. I have no idea how to fix this common problem. The fact that I even got it running at all was a miracle.

William Holtzer · 2020-08-01 18:11

Everybody's gotta start somewhere - nobody is born literate, after all. Besides, if you try to keep tech-illiterate people away from GNU/Linux, that just discourages the use of free software and propagates Microsoft's near-monopoly over the desktop OS market. It's also like keeping illiterate people away from books - you might feel like it's a waste since they probably won't use those books to learn to read, but taking the books away will only guarantee that they won't learn to read.
What is "Windows cosplayer" even supposed to mean?

Your alsa config is fuarrrked up somehow. Idk why its trying to load libasound_pulse or whatever but of you don't have pulse installed/configured that could be the issue. Otherwise that stuff about not being able to open "default" or "card 0" usually indicates a misconfiguration with alsa.

I play on pure wine or wine-staging, manually managing prefixes, debian or gentoo usually, some of my experiences:
> Melty Blood Actress Again
works perfectly, nice fun for a quick rush
> Fallout 1
got a full play-through on linux, works perfectly
> Fallout New Vegas
works great aside from some minor graphical glitches sometimes, blur or bloom stuff or something. and some audio stuttering when huge fights break. the mp3-based music was broken until I removed the gstreamer libav plugin that wine was using for some reason, and now it falls-back to something else and music works perfectly.
> Dawn of War: Soul Storm
played many multiplayer matches, works perfectly. pretty nice strategy game
> Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds
works pretty well. had some trouble with the multiplayer, it worked but sometimes randomly disconnected. other players were on windows. don't know if this is a wine-related issue or a windows one or both.
> S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Call of Chernobyl
an awesome mod for Call of Pripyat, I use the Road-Side Picnic mod-pack. play iron-man mode which makes it a rouge-like where death deletes your saves. makes the game way more enjoyable, scary, and adrenalin-filled.
> VA-11 HAL-A
good VN, did a full play-through on linux, works perfectly.
> Red Alert 2
works pretty well. I only played single player. some rare crashes.
> The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion
minor problems, but works well in general
> Nehrim: At Fate's Edge
great mod for Oblivion, also works pretty well. spent a lot of time with this one.
> Age of Empires 3
also works pretty well. I don't play it much nowadays.

People have managed to get modern Battlefields working on Linux but it trips the anticheat and gets your game derezzed. As far as I am aware there is no way to get the most recent CoD working on Linux. You can get the older ones working though without risk of a ban if you use private servers, just be aware that a lot of the older CoDs are filled with RCE vulnerabilities.

https://www.protondb.com/ is a database of games that are measured based on how well they run with Proton (Valve's wine-based technology built into steam on Linux). This site was super helpful when I was a Linux gamer.

I recommend installing Lutris. The main feature is it lets you easily install many different versions of wine+dxvk and then select a specific one for each game. This is important because wine has regressions all the time and even if your package manager version works for one game, it might not for another.
It also has a website where you can download config files/scripts to install various games so you don't have to guess the correct settings and versions, but those are pretty hit or miss in my experience.

Same idea, but last I used playonlinux (which was years ago I admit) it kind of sucked a lot.
Lutris also has "runners" for things other than wine like emulators, though I haven't used that feature. And it installs DXVK (which is sort of a wine plugin that handles newer directx versions) for you, not sure if playonlinux can do that.

For some reason games on my t440p seem to run as poor as (if not worse than) my x220t, despite this machine having a quad core i7 CPU and the x220t having a dual core i5.
The t440p uses debian while my x220t runs fedora, so could old packages be the issue? I mean, could that really cause such a big hit to performance? And regardless, the games are installed through steam so shouldn't that mean that dependancies are downloaded on a per-game basis from steam directly?
I dunno, it's weird and I feel like I should be getting better performance than this. All I can run reliably is retro-style 2D games, and even that isn't guaranteed. Pic related, Mushihimesama, ran fine on my x220t but is full of slowdown on here.

My Logitech G29 was gathering dust in a corner since I could never get bothered to reboot in a Win10 partition just to play some Assetto Corsa/ProjectCars 2/whatever.
I read somewhere that there was a program named Oversteer that could manage logitech wheels, but there were mixed opinions every time it was mentioned.
I decided to give it a try and installed it. I plugged the G29 in and nothing happened. Then I just switched the toggle from PS4 to PS3 and in no time it was up and running. All things considered I was done in like 10 seconds. Didn't even have to reboot. On windows I had to spend a few hours finding the right version of Logitech' soykafty software, since every time you uninstall it and install an older build you have to clear a whole bunch of folders and reboot.
Different story for the games. Assetto Corsa refused to launch, I had to use proton5-0.10 and install dotnet4.7 with protontricks, which took a while. But now it runs perfectly. It just strutters a bit every time you spawn in a new track since it has to build caches. Even multiplayer just works.
CODEX' releases of Project Cars 2 and Assetto Corsa Competizione just work. Just like ETS2, which is native.

Windowed fullscreen is life.
In games that don't have windowed fullscreen have Wine simulate a windows desktop. It's not perfect and your monitor might still flicker as the resolution changes, but that's not a Lutris thing.

With RPG Maker 2000 games I had Not Implemented errors, so I used EasyRPG to run those; it is a much finer experience than wine overall. Games with newer RPG Maker engines (at least with VX Ace) seem to run fine.

You may resize a windowed game to take full screen while preserving ratio with xdotool like that xdotool selectwindow windowmove 50% 50% windowsize 1440 1080 . Sometimes it is comfier than virtual wine desktop and is essential when game does not have fullscreen at all. Size resets when you move the window and it may not work with some poorly coded games. More elaborate X hacks are possible, but I have not tried implementing those nor I have seen implementations of those fixing the problem.

Seems to be a wine problem. Try change Audio driver in Runner options, disable toggles connected to PulseAudio in System options? Lutris does not mess with audio that much.
>forces vulkan by default even if your gpu doesn't support it
Most modern GPUs support it. Disable it in global settings. Lutris should show you a warning on first launch. It is sometimes hard to tell whether a given GPU with given drivers supports vulkan; for some GPUs support is partial, there are different drivers, different versions of drivers, so lutris does not do that. Is it that hard to toggle one switch once?
>rapes all of your monitors if you have multiple when you launch a game
>launches on primary always instead of the one where lutris is running
>locks you into the monitor game is running on, if you try to switch to another one to do something it starts raping your monitors and prevents you from switching
Try submitting PRs if it bothers you, it is probably moderately easy to fix. I have not encountered that though since my second monitor mirrors first one 95% of the time. Multi-monitor setup seems just redundant with a tiling window manager. Maybe guys who develop lutris don't have multi-monitor setups?
>I don't understand if I'm doing something wrong or what, but for a tool to make things easier it sure as fuarrrk doesn't seem to do me any favors.
It is a neat frontend for wine and other emulators and also a game library organizer. I like it; it is much better than retarded dmenu shell scripts I wrote for substituting the latter. Managing multiple versions of wine is also neat. It works very fine for me.

the problem is that lutris itself seems to know your GPU does not in fact support vulkan (there is system info tab somewhere in settings, and it clearly said vulkan not supported) yet it still forces it regardless. that's just badly written software
Linda Lee · 2021-04-23 16:27
>>4696
Yeah, that is bad design then, maybe it should provide user an option disable DXVK if vulkan is not available (it can't determine if it is actually supported by GPU, libvulkan might just be missing, which is usually the case https://github.com/lutris/lutris/blob/5637f25c1802c4b26f7868c78ca1877897f21f87/lutris/util/graphics/vkquery.py#L83). You may submit a PR to fix that as well. Add an option to disable DXVK and don't show again here, it is just couple of lines https://github.com/lutris/lutris/blob/5637f25c1802c4b26f7868c78ca1877897f21f87/lutris/util/wine/wine.py#L348

Doesn't seem to do anything with Wine games locked to a certain resolution unfortunately.
Yamaoto Toshi · 2021-04-24 09:45
>>4699
Some games just hardcode resolution instead of using dimensions of a window. You can't really do anything with it but to redraw contents of a game window to a separate window, I guess.

Playing games on linox is like using a Phillips head screwdriver on a screw that is specifically designed for flatheads.
I just want to play Stalker and Tarkov for petessakes without crashing. Also playing Halo on linux feels sinful for me.

I've Been playing it since 2014, and i love this game a lot.
It's more realistic that what you amy think at first glance.
and has a lot of races/Backgrounds/Gods, wich make the playstyle options almost infinite.
The race usually defines the difficulty, so, if someone wants to be a real men/women/combat helicopter, you gotta play with Mummy, the hardest race (and my personal favorite)

forgot to mention, i sticked with the 0.16.2 version of the game (it's from 2016 i think), bacause in newer releases the devs deleted or nerfed a lot of things and redesigned the UI
Also, on this game, you don't even need a mouse connected to your computer, wich is nice.

What was the last newer version you've tried? Maybe the latest version would be interesting to you, despite the UI changes. I see 0.16.3 was released back in March 2020.
Would like to try this, but am curious on your opinion between the latest and 0.16.X beyond UI changes. Did the devs "ruin" the game, or would the latest version be worth a try?

Had a lot of fun with Taisei which is an open source Touhou fan game. Not a big 2hu guy myself but i like shoot em ups and it's pretty high quality, plus i finally get why Cirno is an idiot. It's in the void repos and you can even play it in the browser, but it doesn't work for me, not with my autistic privacy settings.

Could any of these games run on my poor Thinkpad T60 with Intel graphics (that means no OpenGL 2.0 support) and Debian 11? Btw, where did you got these games cracked for loonix?
Leto Atreides I · 2021-08-29 23:10
>>5085
Debian 11 for sure, because it's the distro that I'm using on this image, and the Thinkpad T60
is probably better than my computer, but if you have any performance issues I recommend
you to change the cpu governor

What usally fuarrrks me in the ass is the lack of OpenGL 2.0 support (old ass GPU, 1.4 is as far as I go), and your computer is superior to my T60. But I would like to try a few of them (specially Hotline Miami), where do you get cracked games for loonix?

Lol, it took some time but I found some info on a program called adriconf that reads DRI configuration files. The problem being that I can't compile the fuarrrking thing because there's no mention of the dependencies, leaving me with weird soykaf like pic related.

Found he dependencies for Debian (there are no mention of this on their gitlab and I might be missing some that were already installed on my computer like build-essential, pkg-config, git, cmake, etc):
sudo apt install libpci-dev libgtkmm-3.0-dev libboost-all-dev libxml++2.6-dev libdrm-dev libgbm-dev Then follow the building instructions on https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/adriconf
Going to restart the computer and see if it works, btw, the <option name="fragment_shader" value="true" /> is already true by default so no reason to add it manually. Thanks for the help, you guys. I hope it works.

MAME runs out of the box, so do most other relevant emulators. Only for N64 you will need to run Project64 via Wine.

I only run Project64 through Wine when I want to netplay games with my friends. Mupen64Plus is native and works great for everything else.
Leto Atreides I · 2021-11-07 17:58
>>5549
The last time when i tried it (~1 year), I found mupen64plus inferior to Project64. Graphical Effects where missing or glichy, some games that work okay with Project64 (in my case: Banjo Tooie) wasn't completeable.
Mupen64plus is much more cool though and i hope they catch up one day, but aside from Lylat Wars or SM64 i would prefer P64.
