    Rimworld? I mention it more because I'm 100% sure it runs natively on linux and not because I consider it a strategy game (though one might argue it is, in a way (as everything else, if one generalizes things enough))

    What are some strategy games that DON'T run on Linux? Everything I ever tried works just fine

    homie, you have a whole package manager with a catalogue of strategy games that can be downloaded for free
    make use of your own system

      It's /gsg/ or /gsg/-adjacent schizobabble. Some people were sent over the edge by the announcement of Victoria 3 and turned into... that.

    homie, what's such a big deal about running then trough wine/dosbox? I do this for almost every game, and it worked fine for me (the reason I do this, even with games that have a native port is that it's really hard to find pirated games for linux, so I just run the windows version)

      Wine works well with some 10% of games and shits itself if you look at it wrong.

      Which is why I bit the bullet and am dual-booting. Gonna buy a GPU with passthrough and use a VM to not have to witness W11 though.

        wine works well with old games
        jc141 has a guide to setting up wine properly on github, it's called "setup" or something. he also has torrents of a bunch of games set up to work with linux
        after i followed his guide, my wine stopped sucking. apparently installing just wine is shit, there's a bunch of extra shit you need

        More like 50%. 90% if you bother looking the game up in appdb for simple fixes.

    You WILL install Steam and you WILL play Windows games on Linux via Proton and you WILL be happy!

    I'd also recommend Brigador, yeah, I know it's not strategy but it's a good game to blow of some steam to.
