recent games:

Steam => naev => naev.org (My gentoo bug for version bump was ignored, but steam had newer version)

Steam => endless sky => https://endless-sky.github.io/ (steam has the previous version, works fine on gentoo amd64)

five-or-more (I think it is a game from the gnome project)

pysol

urbanterror

A decent distro may have them in the tree, cough not lazy gentoo game developers

this pic has been on my phone for a while.
reminds me of a book i had as a child: "Nature invented it first" - could be changed to "Linux invented it first"!

Morrowind - technically, it's a windoze game but openmw is a Linux and BSD ported front end and engine that uses the existing install. Not wine, plays great on Linux and FreeBSD. You have to own Morrowind.

Feral Interactive's games are very polished. I just played through Tomb Raider 2016 and Rise of the Tomb Raider! Spec Ops: The Line is another game I have recently beat on Linux. Insurgency is a nice multiplayer game that works well in Linux.

Having played 1.6 for 10 years, I dont find cs:go appealing somehow.

I play Dota2 sometimes having played it for 5 6 years.

Want to learn/start "Battle for Wesnoth".

Currently I play chess on the Free Internet Chess Server.

Mount & Blade is great - the native Linux version came out years ago and was already one of my favourite games. Still play it most weeks, but you do end up spending hours on it as it gets very involved! Quite quick to get into though - although it revolves around the combat engine, you can play the game in a peaceful way and just do trading to make money and you can surrender if attacked if you don't want to fight. However, the combat engine is cool! You can also invest in businesses within each town to bring in an income or just amass a nice big army and start taking over the map (you also get income from towns you capture). Quite a lot you can do in this game, but most of it is optional and there is no set path to follow.

Since installing Linux I've played Life is Strange and Tomb Raider. I'm currently playing Rise of the Tomb Raider. All are really good. Life is Strange is not my usual genre but it's well worth playing.

my favorite Open Source games

I put together a list of some of my favorite Open Source games that run on Linux here: https://lmemsm.dreamwidth.org/8013.html I personally tend to prefer educational games or games that make you think to games that just let you improve your reflexes.

The 'GNOME Chess' in applications has three levels, is stable, easy to use, free, and the graphics are fine. There are other chess games in applications with 3D capability and other attributes that have their own merits according to individual playing habits.
