I like starbound. Fun and runs even on older hardware.

Kerbal Space Program!

Good game but I think I would recommend paying through proton anyway because the native realise seems rather forgotten about.

@flibbertigibbet @LlamaSutra yeah I found it to be a much better time through Proton... But then, that seems to be my experience in quite a few games with native versions... 😄

It is honestly astounding what they've done with proton.

@flibbertigibbet What happened?

[–] flibbertigibbet@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

I mean "good astounding", as in what they've managed to achieve with it.

Guess the devs were too focused on trying to make KSP2 less of a clusterfuck

[–] flibbertigibbet@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wouldn't give the original devs a hard time. It seems like they did an amazing job with very few resources. I don't even blame them for releasing a Linux native port as an afterthought, even that is better than most.

I will be very very surprised if KSP2 sees any meaningful improvement before being shut down.

[–] LlamaSutra@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I was meaning to throw shade at the new developers who are running KSP2 into the ground.

[–] flibbertigibbet@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

I took it as such. :-)

I just wanted to show the original devs a little love.

The Talos Principle must be mentioned here. It was the first major game to provide Vulkan support, running just incredibly well.

And of course, Minecraft.
