I haven't seen a blatant cheater / bot ever since they did the update that banned a ton of them. They used to be in every single casual match and I would have to join a community server.
Started with Gnome, then i3, Hyprland and now Sway. Gnome not being designed around customisability made me switch to i3. Hyprland has had some stability issues and regressions that annoyed me and so I switched to Sway. Thinking of trying out river at some point.
I like boomer shooters and immersive sims, so I picked up Selaco and Fallen Aces. Both are good so far. Selaco has some maze-like levels that can be a bit annoying, but the gunplay is very fun and the level of polish and detail is very high. Fallen Aces is awesome for the amount of ways it gives you to deal with the goons.
The next season was announced in December of 2023 and it’s changing studio to Wit Studio, so hopefully they do a good job of it. I’ve rewatched it and it’s great for being both relaxing and engaging at the same time, planning to read the light novel at some point.
They’re great on certain desktops, like Fedora’s Atomic Desktops, but you usually have to work around Flatpak specific issues. On NixOS there doesn’t seem to be a declarative way to install them.
I’m a dev, but not a game dev, and I think that open source games that are popular are more likely to stay around, even if the original dev team stops working on it as it can be forked, which is pretty awesome for longevity. Also other “real” open source games: osu! and Veloren.
Have you tried Open Tablet Driver (if your tablet is supported)? I use it on Wayland and it works perfectly for me, but I’m not an artist and I only use it to play osu!.
Based Chihayafuru, shame that it seems to have stopped like half way through the manga.
Some of these I haven’t watched in a while, so the order could be different after rewatching them:
I like drama and slice of life the most.

Half-Life and Half-Life 2 have plenty of really good mods if you are interested in those, Black Mesa started as just a mod as well.

There are many more that I haven't mentioned / played myself.
My top four on steam are:

Re:ZERO or Ascendance of a Bookworm (underrated in my opinion).
Same over here :)
Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 -> Fedora Workstation -> Fedora Silverblue -> NixOS
Game was fun and had a lot of potential, it’s a shame it didn’t get popular enough.
You can still get the Retroarch Citra core if that works for you.
I don’t use the Flatpak, but for me the rpc doesn’t seem to work for Steam games, it seems to work for everything else that supports it though.

And all the fears you hold so dear
