Hi!

I have been playing WoW (more on the private side) for a while now on my Linux machine. However, as time passes by, one does wish to look for different games.

Could anyone recommend me an MMO that works on Linux? More specifically, I have tried quite a number that have been ported natively to Linux, so I was wondering if anyone knows ones they have had a fun time playing which work through Wine or Proton. I have tried few ones other than WoW, but especially their launchers fail to work with Wine.

FF14 is fantastic through XIVLauncher. ESO works out of the box, and so does Guildwars 2. There's plenty to choose from!

Oh shit gw2 works out of the box? Well - I guess I know what mmo I am headed back to.

It used to have some issues with the launcher, forever ago, but I've been playing it for a long time now, and it's working excellently. No issues with the game, or an addon like arcdps, although if you need Blish, it's still in very early stages of the port
