Alr first of lemme clear it up, i use Linux so i need something compatible. Ik and have experience with setting up wine and Lutris for windows games so its okay if you suggest smth like that but pls make my life a bit easier :3
So im like fps games like CS:GO/CS2 and i really enjoy that game, the only thing sucks is community and lack of communication. Like for a team based fps, communication is must and ppl don’t talk.
Please suggest me some FREE games to play. Yeah i don’t mind single players too, you can suggest some good ones. Umm i want smth like fps and that stuff. Normal grinding game or story games works too. Tbh im just lost and don’t know what i want lol. Thankies:)
System spec: 8GB ram and RTX 3050
Warframe
xonotic is free, open source and runs natively on linux. fast arena fps, no wine needed. not an fps, but i also made a free browser game called salvage.run if you want something short between matches
Try 7DaysToDie, it has multiplayer the way you want, with necessary talking. And is like minecraft but realistic.
DDNet
story games works too
Its not even close to anything else you talked about, but vivid/stasis is amazing
Overwatch
How about UZDoom and some kick-ass famous WADs from Cacowards from all the years? Freedoom wads let you do a lot of it without owning the original games:
Easily one of the most bountiful communities with endless maps and mods and sprites and music and whatever you can imagine and then some.
Play with yourself is free, and almost everyone loves it.
Give that a go.
Umm got bored doing it 😞 lmao
That sounds wrong lol
You probably just need practice, you’ll get there buddy!
Hold on idk how I got confused but you were actually talking about masturbation
Lol, yes. I thought you were in on the joke.
Nah I wanted to comment on it assuming you meant masturbation, but then for some reason I thought “Playing with yourself” was the title of some game and that I was just being dirty minded… therefore I said it sounded wrong… brain fart
Hmm. Free is harder.
I’ve been on a Soulash 2 kick lately. It’s like dwarf fortress adventure mode. Very roguelike, single player.
Songs of Syx is a city-state simulator. Pretty much the best parts of SimCity, rimworld, and Total War mixed together.
Project silverfish is an extraction shooter that I think most fits the title of STALKER spiritual successor.
Beyond All Reason, mentioned elsewhere, is the best RTS around right now. Completely free.
Factorio/Dyson sphere program for factory games.
Sorry, not a lot of free recommendations.
In addition to free game suggestions, I would suggest periodically checking gg.deals to get commercial games at significant discounts. It aggregates discounts from different platforms when games go on sale.
If you don’t mind having an Epic Games Store account, you can also claim the weekly free games from there.
Free games? The itch.io Halloween sale is on and I did a post with like 130 of them yesterday, and that’s just the ones I hadn’t already claimed! Most of them are probably terrible, but think of sifting through the haystack as a kind of metagame in itself.
Deadlock. Lots of communication, if you have a good team. Third person shooter MOBA w/ heavy moderation (people actualy get comm banned for being shitty). Will have to go to the discussion page in steam and get an invite tho.
…it’s wild that it’s one of the most played games on steam and still needs an invite. -_-
Wait i have heard ppl i one discord server talk abt this. Dk what the game is about but might try it. Thanks
Take this from another avid FPS enjoyer of decades - it fucking rocks.
Depending on your region and time of day, the communication can be very much what you’d expect from Counter-Strike and Valve games in general, but it’s easier to get people talking like a team. Probably just for now as the game is still invite-only and somewhat niche. Like, you not having played it with the kind of query you’re making the starter post? That’s a genuine surprise.
Fun to learn and master, especially after mostly FPS.
And since we’re here, THE FINALS. Easily the most unique online FPS that is also completely free, their Cashout gamemode being something you just can’t describe through other games - it’s not bomb defusal, it’s not capture-the-flag, it’s not king-of-the-hill, but it’s awesome. Treat yourself to something new and fun, trust another CS player - it’s really good.
Most classic roguelikes are free and many even open source. It is a great genre and if you take time to learn one of them you’ll be at home in any. They are all played in micro-turns so time only advances when you make inputs. That means you can get up at any time without having to pause the game. They have many other features mostly unique to them, too. For instance, in basically all of them everything stays the way you leave it. Items on the ground don’t despawn after a while. Monsters can also pick up and use your items, though.
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is one of my favorite games of all time. You can explore realistic towns and forests after the apocalypse. For instance, you can find most of the items that would be in a real kitchen in an in-game kitchen and use them to craft a staggering amount of stuff. While you’ll mostly see zombie variants, there are enough different horrifying things to encounter that every run is different.
The controls of C:DDA are numerous, though. It may not be a friendly starting point if you have no experience with anything like it. I’m not sure what to recommend for that. Brogue is easy to get into but pretty shallow. Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup might be a decent introduction to the genre.
+1 on Cataclysm, but I prefer The Last Generation fork. I havent been a fan of DDA for a hot minute, and Wormgirl’s working miracles over there
If you own Quake, the Quake Brutalist Jam 3 is a lot of fun and many hours of content. It works off a new set of weapons/enemies so it’s not just “more Quake”, though obviously works within that mold.
If you have MCC on Steam, I recommend Ruby’s Rebalanced Mod for Halo: CE. As a life long Halo player, it felt like a breath of fresh air and reminded me of how I first felt playing it almost 25 years ago.
Or just do what I do and play DOOM and DOOM II every week lol.
