It's been another few months since I asked this question, so let's see what you have all been up to recently! There's so many games on Linux now we are spoilt for choice.
Myself, I have been playing a fair bit of the strategy game/collectible card game Faeria which I have fallen a little in love with.
We also had a bit of a multiplayer game on Sid Meier's Civilization V with myself, Samsai, BTRE and a fellow named Gnarface from IRC. I have to say, that game has given me a renewed interest in Civilization V, and I hope Aspyr are able to fix the game up soon for newer Nvidia drivers as it became an issue for me. I ended up having to use my Steam Machine with the older more stable drivers.

Revisiting Don't Starve for completitionist itch (lot of new, slight changes there), and writing in-depth review about Bioshock Infinite. Ran out of steam for Team Fortess 2. Looking forward to get all kind of new games later this year, just need more time.

Divinity: Original Sin (all my characters are level 20 but I'm missing a Star Stone ...)
SUPERHOT (the most innovative shooter I've played in years) ;-)
Overgrowth (which finally is starting to show some chance that it might actually get finished)

After giving the Fun Pimps such a hard time for their awful Linux support, I finally got around to playing the late Alpha 13 version of 7 Days to Die.
I have to say, it's really, really good. It's get absolutely panned in the Steam reviews right now - lots of people preferred Alpha 12, so I'm going to re-voice my hatred of reviews for Early Access games... but since I never played Alpha 12, I'm coming in fresh and it's really superb.
Like Minecraft, only with good graphics. Well, and a lot more detail hunger/thirst, warmth/chill, clothes, infection, and a really, really slick crafting system. And of course, a huge variety of zombies.
So, yeah - definitely worth checking that out if you haven't played it yet.

Divinity: OS, Talos Principle, Dreamfall: Chapters, and Amnesia: TDD (because I realized at some point that I'd never finished it the first time)
Edit: Oh! and this great user-created campaign for SR:HK, The Caldecott Caper!

After I've read here that Knights & Merchants was released on Steam for Linux (as wine wrapped version) I've started to play it. 4 days later I've 14 hours in game and I've realized that this is a game that I loved so much back in the days and now I remember why. I'm on 7th mission (almost done) and I guess I will continue to play it next weekend and week as well.
Before K&M I was playing Pillars of Eternity.

Alas, I have mostly been playing the gf's copy of Stardew Valley in wine recently. I've not even played Xcom 2 for a few weeks..
Other than that, I've been playing Openxcom on my phone, and Final Fantasy X on my PS4.

Blaze Rush - Fun Top Down Racing game with Guns. Played it mostly local co-op with my 2x steam controllers.
7 Days to Die - played around 4-5hours, lots have been improved (played like 2 years ago last time), visuals are really good and runs amazingly if 64bit executable is enabled from the launch script and reflections disabled.

Prison Architect. I picked it up during Early Access but never played it much. It's really good fun.

After playing some Factorio (can't wait until the next update!) I got in the mood for building games, so I got myself Sol: Mars Colonization and Spatials, both are fun games, although I wish the Spatials planet missions weren't so repetitive.
Then I got into the mood for space games so I've been playing VoidExpanse (great game!).
With the Battle Pass thing going on most of my game time lately has been in Dota 2 though.

I've been playing a lot of demos lately but for full games I am working on Deadfall Adventures. It's overall got sold gameplay, nothing special but not bad. The sad thing is they only had one guy working on the Linux version and he left the company so it has been in an endless beta phase where it has seen zero improvements in almost 2 years. Going to probably play the visual novel RE: Alistair++ once i'm done.

Right now I'm playing through the games of the great humble bundle from last month. I absolutely loooove Else Heart.Break(), despite the annoying graphic glitches! Tons of fun exploring and building a library of networked routines :)
Tried a bit of Sunless Sea until the wrong key got revoked, then switched to Never Alone. Looking forward to Doorkickers, Outlast and Retro City Rampage DX.
Also played a lot of Descent Underground, Descent and Descent II. And a bit of the new Unreal Tournament.

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime .. also every chance I get.

Knight Squad .. pretty much a great go-to game for killing time.

And for the one AAA I'm playing ATM, Dying Light, they really need to get multiplayer working.
