PayPalFeral Interactive, one of the only companies to be porting AAA games to Linux have put out a request for more port suggestions.
THE REQUESTINATOR is whirring noisily into action! Feed your game requests for macOS, Linux or mobile into this marvellous machine and they will be processed with unnecessarily complex computational algorithms.
You can see the posts on Twitter and Facebook.
While it's a bit of fun, it will be interesting to see how many of the requests Feral actually end up porting. They're already working on Life is Strange 2, Total War: THREE KINGDOMS and Total War: WARHAMMER II is due out this month. So they're still bringing us some good games, but I do hope they seriously have more coming up.
If they really want a list, being realistic here my top three right now to keep me happy would be:
- HITMAN 2
- Just Cause 4
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider
I think those would be possible, since they already have some sort of contacts with each studio and publisher and have done previous titles. In the case of Just Cause 4, it's the same developer that did Mad Max which Feral Ported to Linux. Those are my realistic titles, however, if they want to push they boat out a little how about:
- Dying Light 2
- Dead by Daylight
- Divinity: Original Sin 2
What would be your top 5, that you would want Feral to port to Linux?

Quoting: preludelinuxThe best bang for the buck supporting a game out the door as a day 1 release , would be "cyberpunk 2077"
Sadly the chances of seeing anything from cdprojeckt red are about zero given the meltdown they had with the linux community before during and after witchergate.
Quoting: GuestQuoting: mylkaQuoting: jardonTbh I think Feral should focus hard on trying to port multiplayer games. Thats the biggest area that Proton is lacking and one of the biggest dealbreakers with people trying to switch from windows. If you cant play with your friends then they are way less likely to stay on the Linux side of the fence.
they do with warhammer
just look at the top100 list

there are so many linux games. which game should they port?
pubg.... dont think so
ubisoft (clancy / for honor)... dont think so
gta5.... rockstar same as ubisoft
paladins, path of exile.... free to play... how should this work?
dead by daylight... maybe
there is not much to port for feral on the MP market, which brings the moneyzzzz
Warframe
Already works flawlessly on lutris for me
Quoting: SolipsistWerewolfDirt Rally 2 would be great.
That will be VP that ports those as they have done all the other codemasters ports
Quoting: tonRUPDATE: Already tried last night (my local time). Fixed the graphics but losing some FPS.Quoting: aejsmith[Going by your PC info, you have a AMD GCN 1.0 GPU, in which case this should have been fixed by the game update last week. Do you still see it on the latest version?Not yet. Maybe I'm trying it on weekend. Too busy with work as end of 2018 is getting nearer.
Here's a pictures:
Paris. This place/room always looks invisible before update.
FYI: I'm running low setting and 1536x864 resolution on HITMAN.
Quoting: LeopardErm.. you asked me or aejsmith?Quoting: aejsmithQuoting: tonRHitman 1 is great game even do in my computer, the graphics looks like this.....
Going by your PC info, you have a AMD GCN 1.0 GPU, in which case this should have been fixed by the game update last week. Do you still see it on the latest version?
A quick question: Did you shelved Vulkan renderer in Hitman forever or it is an ongoing thing but not high on priority list?

aejsmith of course. But as expected, he didn't reply.

I see a lot of people mentioning Metro: Exodus or Dying Light 2 - earlier games in these series were ported by their developers/publishers. Can I take it from the requests that they've already announced that they won't be porting their latest games?

I haven't seen anything specific. But regardless, Feral would probably do a better job on the ports since those games were not without issues.
