Fallout New Vegas (pure vanilla with not a single mod aka the console editions and the broken PC ports).

It's sometimes hard to recommend FNV to other people due to the fact that the only way to really enjoy the game is using the Viva New Vegas modlist.

I'm never reinstalling Windows so I have to pray that MO2 gets ported to Linux sooner rather than later because I personally despise hacking with WINE prefixes/organizing esps/ESM files myself. Also the fact that

  • Mods are distributed through a proprietary network ~~shithole~~ service called Nexus Mods
  • I own a copy of the game on Steam unfortunately and I know how much I despise interfacing with that program.
  • There's so many mods to install goddamn

I've tried this before and I hadn't managed to get it to work, but I'm going to try again this week on my Bazzite machine.

I used an older version for Skyrim on Fedora, just had to rename main.exe to whatever launcher exe steam uses to launch the game and replace the original

Have you tried SteamTinkerLaunch? I use Vortex through it, but supposedly it has MO2 support

I haven't tried it but I've heard of it, it sounds very promising though.

I'd highly recommend it - pretty much one click for a lot of annoying things with compatibility. If you run out of Flatpaks it's a bit of extra leg work but still pretty simple.
