I am looking for a great game to play. Let me tell you what I like. I like fantasy RPG's like WoW. I especially like text based MMORPG's like Medievia. I know that I can play Medievia on Ubuntu with the Linux client on thier website. I was just wondering if there are other games like that, that anyone would suggest I check out. Thank in Advance.

I can suggest Savage 2, it's a really nice game. I'm sure you'd like it.

It is commercial, but a mere $20 will get you Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition, which actually includes the Linux client on the DVD and can be easily installed by following the instructions in the top sticky on the Bioware Linux forum. It worked for me.

Neverwinter Nights is a computerized version of Dungeons & Dragons 3.0, and does all the dice-rolling for you. TERABYTES of free modules (i.e., adventures) are available on Neverwinter Vault. It is simply THE most game you can buy in a box. If you haven't given it a try, it's still a great way to support one of the few game publishers who have shown Linux support, and since 2002.

Here's a link to the Neverwinter Nights Linux forums. The third sticky from the top has step-by-step instructions for a complete installation of the Diamond Edition, which worked fine for me, including movies. Bioware has, with this being one of their most popular games, supported the Linux and Mac communities for years, and, in fact, their Linux support is better than their Mac support. Downloadable pay-to-play adventures (about 5 you don't get with the Diamond Edition) have, when necessary, Linux versions. And the "Mother of All Patches," 1.69, came out in both PC and Linux versions.

Have fun! I \\:D/ LOVE this game!
