Hello, welcome once again to the world of facts.

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.

        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.

            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.
