The fallout series and the elder scroll series. Those alone will let me play for years...
I've been playing Fallout 3 & New Vegas, Oblivion, Skyrim all with good performance via SteamPlay on the native Steam client - very happy! I had them working a bit in Wine, but the performance is better now.
I found the Pro-Evo soccer games work well too (they have been in my library for a few years since my Windows days...) - the first good football/soccer game(s) you can play on Linux!
I would like to see a decent Sudoku and Killer Sudoku. For 20 years or so I have played these games in newspapers, magazines and books. In all these instances I have had white paper, black ink and NO flashing lights. Why can I not have Sudoku and Killer Sudoku on a Linux platform that follows these standard forms? KSudoku insists on showing given numbers differently from solved numbers. There should at least be an option to remove this differentiation. This is a visual puzzle and insisting on visual differences that don't help solving is MADNESS!
KSudoku claims to have a Killer Sudoku option but the programmers were so entranced by the graphics that they omitted to display three by three boxes completely. That is one third of the whole puzzle. It's a complete disaster! GSudoku, or is it Gnu Sudoku as actually worse. I do not require silly colours or clever graphics to entice me to play this game. Black ink, white paper and NO FLASHING LIGHTS please. Why is this so difficult?
The only thing that keeps me having Windows installed is World of Tanks.
It seems like a lot of people are running it through Steam (via Proton). It's amazing how many Windows games just run directly from Steam without any config.
Isn't it interesting how many games people wished were playable on Linux that now are? Looking back seeing people 'wishing' for Morrowind and/or Oblivion and even saying that it probably wouldn't happen... "Oh my!" as Mole would say...
