Hello, I'm interested into some good casula shooter's that work on linux. My only requirement is that they shouldn't EVER have to use an external launcher like ea ( have bf3 on steam and the ea launcher just doesn't wanna work ).

I played games like splitgate, halo infinite and battlebit remastered

Was just playing Gunslinger:Juarez , it is well produced, runs perfectly and is pretty fun.

Yeah, runs on Linux fine (my experience was running it from Steam), looks good and is defintelly a shooter.

Turns out it's not really my kind of game because it's a succession of set-pieces (a sequence of fully fledged 3D areas were player progression is mostly linear) but for those more into the shooting and less into exploring or building angles it should be good fun as it's definitely all about the shooting your way through enemy strongpoints (not really about defending from enemy waves).

Yep that's accurate. There is some basic exploring with the secrets but it is sort of tacked on to the main set pieces. Very much an arcade feel.

I finished that game 4 times, might be time for 5th time.

Playing through now. It's really pretty well done. Lots of little humorous touches.
