Hi! I recently played Tokyo Ghostwire and really liked it. I did not play a lot of similar games before. So I am looking for more cool games with exploration and interesting worlds, or similar games in general, that will actually work with controllers and work on linux. Did you pirate something like this recently that you liked?

Rant: I wanted to play Yakuza 0, as it supposedly works on linux, but it just does not launch. Tried looking for some fixes online, but found nothing relevant to my problem, as it works for most people… Tried the same with Sleeping dogs, and all I got was a white screen. The fixes I found online with some xml file adjusting the screen resolution but it made the problem even worse,as the game stoped to even try to launch. Tried two different repacks and it changed nothing.

So, I am asking for recommendations for more games that I can play, maybe I can get some of them to actually work. I use lutris and protonQT to manage different versions of wine ge and proton. The method of “adding program as a non-steam game” just does nothing, the programs do not launch.

    I’m not exactly sure what you mean by exploration but DayZ works on Linux. It’s an open world zombie survival multiplayer game with a massive map. I have 650 hours on this game and there are still probably few towns I haven’t ever visited.

      This sounds cool. I did use the world exploration in the broad sense instead of a specific genre because I am truly interested in experiencing an interesting world,no matter to me right now if it is a survival game, or horror, or walking simulator… Thanks for the reccomendation this sounds great honestly. will need to check it.

        People jokingly call DayZ a hiking simulator because it includes so much running in the woods between towns. It truly is one of a kind of game. I haven’t ever played anything else like it. The learning curve is steep though and I recommend watching few tutorials as trying to survive as a new player will be brutal. There will be alot of starving to death and dying to infections and diseases. Best would be teaming up with a more experienced player but trying to find ones that are friendly can be tricky.
