  • Ditched Windows late last year and jump to Linux as my main driver. I’ve had Linux servers for years but it is completely different when it’s your main driver.

    I mainly play games and from the over 100 games that I tried to play only 2 had issues and I was unable to get them working (BattleField 4 and FaF Forever).

    Honestly Wine and subsequently Proton is the true game changer when it comes to games BUT I’m on an all AMD hardware and had 0 issues with driver stability, however a friend of mine on an Intel/nVidia has had a couple of issues which were eventually resolved but took a bit of wait for fixes and updates.









  • Factorio without bitters. The music of desolance, alone on the planet trying to get efficient so you can leave and go home. I don’t know why it is so relaxing, but it is… just having time to plan and build exactly what you had in mind is bliss.

    On the other hand if you want some adrenaline, play bitters in deathworld.


  • As someone who still does LAN weekends with a few friends a couple of times a year, this is a hard one especially if you have 6+ players, however here are my suggestions.

    Supreme Commander using the FAF Client - huge scale RTS with up to 16 people in a single map (8v8).

    Left4Dead Versus - 8 people go 4v4 so two teams in your case. Dedicated server recommend.

    Unreal Tournament 2005/3 - lots of games modes and supports a lot of people but you may need a dedicated server.

    Gary’s Mod PropHunt, Bomberman etc - Great sandbox game - can be a bit junky to setup up but excellent if you get it right

    Blur - racing game which may be hard to find as it is not being sold anywhere but an excellent multiplayer one

    Factorio - way slower pace than any games mentioned, but if you play Deathworld is an adrenaline rush and fun coop. Up to 500 people so 15-16 people is no sweat. Also good for long term goals for continuing play.

    Human Fall Flat - funny physics puzzle game up to 4 people. Great for competition as you can make it 4 teams of 4 and have a leaderboard.

    Planetside 2 - FPSMMO - epic battles and still very active

    That’s a lot of typing already - let me know if you want more suggestions - happy gaming








  • I would recommend something just outside your area but with a lot of fun movement mechanics.

    Warframe It’s an online/instanced 3rd person shoot em up but the movement is the best out there. PvE focused but there are PvP elements too. Very good and long progression but it is grindy.

    Titanfall 2 The campaign is single player but one of the best told stories. The movement is just behind Warframe. The online multiplayer is absolutely epic as you get to take out Titans and also call down your own. However, there is quite a lot of cheaters unfortunately which may spoil your experience.

    Closer to your request.

    Orcs Must Die Fun tower defence with traps and 3rd person action.

    Deep Rock Galactic Mining space dwarfs and beer. That is all you need to know.

    Gunfire Reborn Roguelike FPS with lota of characters and abilities. The aim is to kill the final boss and then try to do it faster and faster.

    Got more if you want to know more, but that will be a very good start.
