Woah! Holy Sh...Deus Ex: Mankind Divided looks like it may be getting a Linux & SteamOS release which has literally blown my tiny little mind.

There's a rather large bit of info here on SteamDB, where you can see stuff like this:
Quotelaunch/9/config/oslist: linux
launch/9/executable: DeusExMD.sh
launch/9/type: none

And this:
Quote337001/encryptedmanifests/domesticated_mac_linux_sync/encrypted_gid_2: 973A3491BA8BBFE16CAF17F204300E1B


Obviously no word on a release date and this is not confirmed anywhere. It's good supporting evidence though.

Reminder: We have seen Linux pop up on SteamDB before and a port never happened. Just something to keep in mind.

Exciting either way though, as the game is being very well reviewed all around from what I can see. I actually played and finished the one directly before this and loved it. You can bet I will play the crap out of it if/when it's released for us.

About the game
The year is 2029, and mechanically augmented humans have now been deemed outcasts, living a life of complete and total segregation from the rest of society.

Now an experienced covert operative, Adam Jensen is forced to operate in a world that has grown to despise his kind. Armed with a new arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons and augmentations, he must choose the right approach, along with who to trust, in order to unravel a vast worldwide conspiracy.

It seems they've built in a media discontinuity:
You have to scan stuff with a smartphone to get some items.
Oh what a stupid idea...!

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why the videogame industry hates me? :'(

It seems that the Industry wants me to use Windows... :(

So be it! :><:

I just received my Gigabyte Z97X-gaming 7 for my Intel core i7 4790K, so today I will assemble my main gaming machine with a genuine windows 7... My secondary gaming machine will use Ubuntu.

I don't know why you think that. Every Feral port I played was good.

Comandante Ñoñardo is a well known Feral hater-basher.
You know, the archetype of the toxic community member.

His last caprice.

QuoteFor me, porting a game to Linux is to take a game that was made previously for another plattform, such as Windows or P$4, and remake it using another game engine 100% native of the target OS...
LOL. I wonder how edddeduck_feral and all other members can keep their calm in front of this.

Quoting: thelimeydragonWell doesn't look like history will repeat itself.

'Deus Ex' was the game Loki Software was in the middle of porting to Linux before they went bankrupt back in 2001.

Ohhh Sorry for Loki games. I really want DE:HR native on Linux before the DE:MD to play it, it seems a really wonderful game's series, and I really will enjoy to play both under Linux. There's some official way to tell Eidos and/or Square that we want this games?

Thanks Feral for all your work!

Don't know the source of this info, but i wish to believe it. Feral does lovely job, in my experience their ports were really smooth and finished. Starting to save money just in case :D

I was thinking I'd have to get this on PS4 for sure if I didn't want to buy it for Windows. WoW!

Quoting: X6205Well... nice fairytale :) But since this game is more demanding than Batman Arkham Knight (fixed long time ago), realistically i don´t see posibility for this game to come to Linux. You must have quite powerful GPU. Even GTX 970 is barely usable on Windows and Linux port will degrade performance 40-50% so you will need GTX 1080 to play this on "High" preset at 1080p @ 40-50 FPS on Linux. So how many Linux gamers have latest, high-end rig? This port would make no sence financially, but the same applies for Mac port with their laughable laptop-grade GPU´s and yet, they still have better games. So if they want to do it, they will need to degrade graphics greatly. Feral and Aspyr should port their older games to Linux. Older Deus EX HR-DC, Batman games, Bioshock 1+2 or Rage.. and then they can reconsider Arkam Knight and maybe Mankind Divided, when it is fixed and complete edition out, sometimes next year..

Please STOP using common sense and join the hype, Hitman and DE:MD are coming to Linux very soon™! #SquareEnix<3Tux
