Intel has confirmed their plans for a discrete GPU to release in 2020

Quoting: ewertonuriasOmg... I'm Brazilian, our salary is R$ 1000, and a "GTX 1060 Galaxy 6GB 192Bits here costs R$ 1600.
Here practically everything is inaccessible.

Where do you live, it's also so expensive? Asking for curiosity.
I think there's quite different numbers for average wages depending on how you're calculating it, but the first I met for Germany is 1900€ (after tax). The GPU would be about 300€ at the moment. (Do consider that GPU prices have been on a rise for a long time due to crypto mining, but have been dropping lately.)

Please, please, let me have a non-persistent, non-progessing, pure-action option.

Thanks.

Quoting: GuestIt definitely makes a difference! Day-1 releases and games that generally give great Linux support get a great percentage of Linux gamers supporting them, too.
Most people want to play games when they are fresh, when people are talking, magazines writing and YouTube/Switch playing...

Quoting: MohandevirIf that's the case, insta-buy for me. It just had the final update to remove lootboxes and add content. It seems like the perfect time for a Linux port:
While I would prefer to get ports the same days, there's some advantages in this late gratification...

Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass has new screenshots and a much bigger world

Quoting: GuestThere were too much desert levels in TFE and BFE. I would say that it was the major flaw of level design in these games - the levels became boring too fast due to similar design.
While I'm fine with desert levels, in my memory BFE (the only Serious Sam game I've ever played) consisted solely of desert levels.

Quoting: ajgpIsnt the rtheory on MS's buying spree that they are adding developers to theuir roster in order to bolster the XBox ones lackluster exclusive offerings. So sadly I would expect most of these developers to now code for Xbox exclusively or at the evry least any otehr platform would be further down the foodchain more than it already is.
For future games, totally.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Well it wont be hellblade now Mircosoft just bought them annouced at E3
This wouldn't affect Feral if they're already porting it.
What you dont think MS could or would pull the plug given they now own the IP ?
I doubt they would and even more so they could. You're signing contracts before starting to port...
