What games do you want ported to Linux? Feral Interactive want to know again

I just noticed an interesting development. On the Feral radar "West Norwood" and "XCOM2 War of the Chosen" split into two dots. But "West Norwood" Linux was left in "Soon" while the rest, including the mac version, moved into "very soon".

Skyrim and Doom are Really easy ports for Linux

Indeed, is more unlikely Skyrim for Switch than Skirim for Linux. but here we are.

Skyrim and Doom for Linux is matter of time. Bateshda's only problem is the old manager/CEO who does not know about tecnology, much less about the future of video games.

In a few months or years, when the Debug of Life cuts off the heads of Bathesda executives, we'll have our Skyrim and DOOM on Linux.

Unity should really get 1 Q&A employee to do at least some rudimentary testing on Linux. Some of the bugs that slip through really make me wonder if they test at all. It seems to me that they use the devs as beta testers.

Quoting: DerRiddaI did my part and became a patron and so should you if you are at all interested in game development.

We need great free software tools out in the world for all productive tasks anyone might want to undertake
and as far as game engines are concerned, this is the one. Much in the same vein as Blender is the one for 3D modelling and animation or OBS for streaming.
I must say it's hard to argue with such a cute little piglet.

Obviously Skyrim, but I'd like to actually see a Linux client for Wildstar since someone mentioned PvE MMOs. Maybe one (or more) of the Tales Of games or the remakes of the Final Fantasy series like FF X and VII. Some of the Batman games and maybe the first two Bioshocks would be great. I hear the Dragon Age games are good, so they'd be a fine addition to the Linux catalogue.

Hey, and I'll be a heretic here and suggest No Man's Sky.

Witcher 3, because it's the only one that would ever make it to GOG.

The games I personally would love to see on Linux are:

The Witcher 3 (Hurray, The Witcher 2 is on Linux)
Shadow Warrior 2 (noting that this one was promised to Linux community, and hasn't been delivered yet)
Skyrim
Doom
Legend of Grimrock 2 (Hurray, LoG 1 is on Linux)

Then there are others which I'd still jump on, but not quite as desperately:

Fallout 4
Rise of the Tomb Raider (Hurray, Tomb Raider is on Linux)
Dragon Age: "any"
Divinity: Original Sin 2 (Hurray, Divinity: Original Sin 1 is on Linux)
Watch Dogs 2
GTA V
Redout: Enhanced Edition
Fallout: New Vegas
Fallout 3
Bayonetta
Witcher 1
Dragon's Dogma
Nier Automata
Battlefield 1
Shadow of War
Dishonored I and II

And then there are things which might not come to PC Windows:

Horizon Zero Dawn

EDIT: Some of these are on GOG, as well as Steam. Also I'd suggest favouring any game where Vulkan can be used as the graphics engine, because that helps the Framerate compete with Windows releases.

Looks good, wonder if someone has setup some performance analysis benchmarks. Be interesting to find out how well it manages these high end 3D features in comparison to say, Unity3D.

Quoting: TheRiddickYeah I know, Bethesda has a bit of a cold war going on with Linux, they don't acknowledge it and seem to avoid hiring anyone with Linux experience (last time I heard nobody in their office has linux installed anywhere...)

Yeah unless something drastic happens like a big spike in Linux market share or a complete change at boardroom level. The odd thing is it wa the guy that ported to Linux back in the day that is putting the boot in the most saying no we tried there is just no market there. I will give them that it was true back in early 00's when they first tried but things have changed.

Quoting: TheRiddickWell its more a question of WHAT GAMES CAN THEY PORT.

BUT given that Bethesda has Vulkan render setup with the Switch version of Skyrim (SE) then I would say make SkyrimSE and Fallout4 available. Next would be Witcher3 or/and GTA5, but allot of these bigger companies are like to be HOSTILE to the idea of Linux (have in the past), no idea why, they just are.

Unlikely List: (Dev hates Linux)
Skyrim SE
Fallout 4
Witcher 3
GTA5
Mass Effect Andromeda

Likely List: (Dev may be open to Linux)
Empyrion - Galactic Survival
DOOM (ID, easy port)
RAGE (ID, easy port)
Med Of War Assault Squad 2
Carmageddon Max Damage (sure why not)
Galactic Civ III
Legend of Grimrock 2 (first one was)
RISEN 3 Titan Lords


That is some on my list there are some upcoming games also but will wait until release, I would even be open to paying a additional fee on top (not full price again please) to get the Linux version of these games!

ID are owned by Bethesda so they wont happen any time soon.

Any of these games: Witcher 3, GTA V, Quake Champions, Rainbow Six Siege, Rayman Origins, Bayonetta HD, NieR: Automata, Tomb Raider Underworld , Rise of Tomb Raider, Mirror's Edge, Fifa 2017, Deus Ex: HR, Dishonored 1 or 2, Prince of persia 1,2 or 3. The Nomad Soul, Anachronox, Outcast, The Longuest Journey, Trackmania 2, A Batman game (no telltale) No One Lives Forever 1 or 2 (just kidding :p), Sonic Generations (Havok), A Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat game.

In general they pick good games, so I'm quite confident with their choice.

Quoting: GuestSpace Marine.

I also wouldn't mind Mechwarrior Online, but that's such a moving target already (or at least used to be) that it's not something I'd ever see happen.
Quoting: GuestSpace Marine.

Would love to see Space Marine sadly think its more to do with licence libo more than anything, as Sega picked up the publishing rights but only for Space Marine. However Warhammer 40k franchise is a licenced property so not only would feral need Sega approval they would also need Warhammer approval to use the Warhammer licence. Plus the studio that made the game is now defunct.

They did seem to manage it for the Dawn of War II series, and Total Warhammer is Sega as well.

I found this from Destructoid from Jan of this year which is interesting Sega apparently do own the rights i stand corrected

"A lot of people on my team worked on Space Marine, had a great time making it, and want to do it."

While he was quick to say a "Space Marine 2" isn't in the works at present, Disbrow mentioned "there's definitely a hunger for it," and should it ever happen, you'd know "it came honestly from the team."

Since the Sega acquisition, Relic "has been doubling down on our strength as a studio, which is in the PC strategy market. That's what we are shaped around and focused on," Disbrow added. "Does that mean we wouldn't circle around and do a Space Marine sequel or something like that in the future? Absolutely not. But right now we're focusing on strategy games."

Out of all of those Witcher 3 is way way more likely

Thanks for the spelling fix. In future, we have a box just for that kind of feedback so we don't fill up comments with stuff like this :). See in bold above the comments "For spelling, grammar and other corrections click here" :)
