What game are you truly thankful to have on Linux & SteamOS?

By - | Views: 44,009
I've asked you what number one game you want to have on Linux, but what about games we already have? What is the number one game that you are truly thankful to have on Linux right now?

That last question was tough, but boy is this one difficult.

Honestly, for me it has to be Rocket League. It sure did take a while to actually arrive on Linux, but the wait was more than worth it.

I'm genuinely scared to load the game due to fear of not doing any actual work. It's a fantastic game to grab a few people together, kick back with a rum and coke and just play-ball.

It's a great game for our livestreams too, since it's another game that enables us to get the community involved, it has so many uses!

The game I'm really thankful to have on Linux is: Alien: Isolation.
Since I was able to test the first version on gamescom 2014, or even since it was announced, I've been looking forward to a release. And it was so cool that Feral ported it to my favorite OS!

But of course there are other games I'm also thankful to have on Linux ;)

Why do you make me choose? :'(

Difficult to answer, since I already purchased a bunch of games from the Steam sale I haven't yet played... Undertale, Valley, Pony Island, Oxenfree, Life is Strange, Planetary Annihilation: Titans and Firewatch to name a few. But of the games I own for GNU/Linux which I have played, I'd probably have to vote for either XCOM or XCOM 2.

For me it's Arma 3. Even if the Linux support is lacking.

If I have to say just one: Borderland 2

I would say Rocket League, easy. Very accesible and popular multiplayer title. It's the kind of game that can seal the deal in convincing people going to Linux.

Warhammer Dawn of war 2

The Witcher 3, will be great to play directly in Linux.

Xcom2 hands down. Haven't been so hooked while playing a game in a long time. Also along DeusEx a title that brought my faith in Feral back (as my previous 2 purchases, DoW and Tomb rRider namely, didn't work on my hardware setup - which I can understand to some degree as it is not everyday Joe's machine, rather a dual processor machine I use for 3d work and rendering).
