Metro Last Light in Proton
Continue the story as Artyom during post apocalyptic Moscow in the underground Metro. Travel through miles of track visiting small communities of survivors and garrisons. The story unveils some twists impacting who is actually winning but I won't unveil that here... but the "dark one" plays a main part in Artyoms survival.
Game-play is almost identical to Metro 2033 with ride-a-longs and cutscenes. Most of the game is linear with some arena-ish areas that allow exploration. You are given the option to sneak or run-n-gun but stealth is much easier for survival since there are only save checkpoints. Specific bullets are uses as currency, but not ammo meant for your weapons. There are also numerous modifications you can use to make your weapons more efficient or quieter.
Sadly I bought Metro Last Light on GOG with did not provide a Linux version. However proton handles the game perfectly! I was able to play though without any major game-breaking...

Tomb Raider 2013
It has been 10 years since I tested Tomb Raider in Linux and once again Feral is successfully at creating a Linux port that stands the test-of-time.
Not only is there a native port that still runs on today's hardware, it also runs on recent distro, kernel and drivers. I was able to play through the entire game with all settings on max without any serious issues. Yeah there is a bit of stutter here and there as with most games using Vulkan, but man this game is beautiful and worth the play through.

Metro 2033 in Proton
The Metro series takes place in Moscow after a global nuclear holocaust in 2013. Survivors now live in underground subway tunnels call Metro. But you are not the only ones lurking in the dark. Fight against Nazi soldiers, mutated monsters and carefully explore the frozen surface. Many scenes are based on survival wave-based ride-along action sequences. Be careful to not waste any ammo, it is hard to find in the Metro.
I'm playing through the Metro series starting with 2033. I've never finished the other two but only tested Last Light. If I remember correctly, Last Light and Exodus both have Linux versions on Steam. Unfortunately I own 2003 and Last Light on GOG, so no Linux versions for me. Metro 2033 ran perfectly with all settings on max in Proton. There was only one bug I noticed, after reloading the pistol, you can't aim down the sites unless you switch weapons. That is about it!
