Good news for anyone wanting to play either Total War Shogun 2 or Fall of the Samurai as the specs have been released for the Linux versions.

Minimum
  • 2GHz processor
  • SteamOS 2.0 / Ubuntu 16.04 or later
  • 4GB of RAM
  • 1GB Nvidia 600 series / AMD 6000 series / Intel Iris Pro


Recommended
  • 3GHz processor
  • SteamOS 2.0 / Ubuntu 16.04 or later
  • 4GB of RAM
  • 2GB Nvidia 700 series / AMD R7 series graphics card or better


NVIDIA users need driver version 375.26 or later. AMD and Intel need Mesa 17.1.

Really awesome to know all major GPU vendors will be supported on Linux, but it's not surprising considering how far Mesa has come in such a short amount of time.

Not long to wait as the games release for Linux on May 23rd! See their news post for more. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: liamdaweIf Feral do port a game that is on both Steam and GOG I'm sure the Linux version will get on GOG too. I wouls hope so at least.

Yes, it's something I implicitly expect too. So it's not about "why Feral's Linux version isn't on GOG while Windows one is", but about their preference of porting Steam only games.

Which has also been explained plenty, hence my point about going in circles ;)

Explained, but not satisfactory IMHO. Feral are probably reading this thread, and if it's something as simple as provided guesses, they can confirm or correct them.

They are a company, they aren't about to give details on all aspects of their business. There's plenty of reasons why companies don't like telling people everything about their decision making. For one, someone will always make a big fuss of it.

Anyway, i think this has been debated enough for me :)

If it's not related to deals with partners which they can't discuss, usually those reasons are related to the fact that they exclude some people ;) I personally don't see anything wrong with admitting that fact though.

Quoting: LeopardNext time , i will to the Feral ' Hey , yo Feral! Shmerl wants you games on GOG , because he is Polish and he has somekind of fanatizm,patriotizm about GOG so he somehow wants you to break main developers or publishers attitude. Don't mind if he is talking about other Drm-free stores ; he only cares about GOG'

Dude , enough of that your GOG loving movements. No matter what we approach you ; you're still trying to blame Feral and somehow Valve itself. Drop it off.

If you are not happy about it ; tell your beloved GOG to care about Linux by porting their titles and Galaxy , not treating us as second class citizens. Maybe after that ; our rising Linux porter Feral can consider that.

Hey Leopard,
Shmerl has an opinion and that is justified.
Please don't blame others for their thoughts/interests - this is really childish - and does not help.

Thats the normal comment here. Respect the others likes or opinions about gog or steam. In the last time i commented and give like to someway talking about the shogun 2 is a an another total car ror linux.. And now im in the naughty list and need moderation ln my comments.Is that real? For now im i retire the patreon,using the same childish logic.and will do now.Probably mi coment will be no posted

You are not on a naughty list, see the explanation here:
QuoteA side-effect of it, was that if you hadn't posted in the forum 3+ times (and the posts were approved), but you did make plenty of article comments, it would see you as having to go through the approvals process. I have since adjusted it to remove any older users from the mod queue who made at least 3 article comments.
Everyone has to go through the approvals process (as detailed in that article) a few times before it auto-removes them. To combat spam and toxic comments. You have not been manually put it anything.
