Looking for exploration game reccomendations that work on linux and work with controllers (beehaw.org)

Hi! I recently played Tokyo Ghostwire and really liked it. I did not play a lot of similar games before. So I am looking for more cool games with exploration and interesting worlds, or similar games in general, that will actually work with controllers and work on linux. Did you pirate something like this recently that you liked?

Rant: I wanted to play Yakuza 0, as it supposedly works on linux, but it just does not launch. Tried looking for some fixes online, but found nothing relevant to my problem, as it works for most people.... Tried the same with Sleeping dogs, and all I got was a white screen. The fixes I found online with some xml file adjusting the screen resolution but it made the problem even worse,as the game stoped to even try to launch. Tried two different repacks and it changed nothing.

So, I am asking for recommendations for more games that I can play, maybe I can get some of them to actually work. I use lutris and protonQT to manage different versions of wine ge and proton. The method of "adding program as a non-steam game" just does nothing, the programs do not launch.

Thanks for the info! Hopefully I'll have less issue because the machine I'm on now (the one I'll be Linux-ifying) is all AMD. I'm trying to do away with Windows in my life, but I have a well-curated collection of games, some of which are m+k only (like Bitburner) and while once I get a Deck that'll be my main gaming platform, I still want to be able to plug a controller into my computer and blow some shit up.

ProtonDB is your friend. I haven't had to tweak many games, but you can find useful information there. ProtonUp-QT is also sometimes helpful. It streamlines adding proton GE, which is sometimes needed for codecs steam can't package. I personally install everything I can through steam, though some prefer heroic or lutris for other stores.

Thank you so freaking much. I'm just getting started learning all this stuff and you've made my searching much, much easier. Sorry if I seem kinda wired— I'm already mainlining coffee for this undertaking!
