Quoting: SkipperroI've tested it and... WOW!To be honest, that's the only acceptable performance experience for such a game with you hardware setup. :)
I've got i7-7700K and Titan XP.
Before path game was playable with framerate around 40-60 with ocasional drops to 20. I was able to play up to a snowy prison map, where the map size and intense snow effects was killing performance and FPS drops below 30 with drops to around 10 on low settings.
Now on everything on max settings I don't see FPS lower than 120. While zoomed in, I've got over 200 FPS.
Oh, and loading times for a game installed on SSD.... nearly instant.
Best performance path ever!

While the game sounds worth getting, the developer is still in a heavy patching phase...

Quoting: linuxvangogThanks for your work - whatever it might secretly include. :)Quoting: legluondunetinstant buy for me on GOG because : " the developer actually said they managed to fix a lot of the Linux issues "thanks to the help of the GOG Linux team""Thanks, I appreciate it :) We do that more often than people realize, but aren't supposed to share it ;)

There's a free predecessor [External Link] as well.
Did anybody try playing one of these with a Windows system on the other side?

Quoting: g000hAnnoyingly I own all of those except Torment: ToN and Xenonauts. I think this deal will last until the next monthly subscription is active, so I might get the full pack (and $2 wallet credit) if I resume the subscription.It seems I'm into classics, too. I already got the three Shadowrun games (just playing the last one, sigh), Wasteland, Broken Sword and Dreamfall (which is the only one I cannot wholeheartedly recommend).
Agree that it is a fantastic bundle. I paid plenty for many of these titles, even on sale elsewhere.
Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia confirmed for Linux, from Feral Interactive

Quoting: GuestI agree, I really want to see more games in general on Linux, but as a TW fan we're missing some of the best ones (Rome 2 and TW2). The comments dissing each of these releases are really annoying and destructive. I won't go into the Tomb Raider announcement and say bad things about it, even if I am not as interested, rather I will simply not comment at all.Well, half of their ports are strategy games. I wonder what like "So many strategy games" you might say about Tomb Raider.

I want comments to be non-destructive.
Shouldn't be too high a bar.

Quoting: DMGAnd what kind of help you want from game or these comments?"So what" sounds destructive to me.

One reason for the many Total War ports for sure is that it gets easier when you've already done it several times. (And I would hope the original developers might take some care, but who knows...)

Quoting: mortigarWould assume Feral does not only make money from sales, so they would need to get something from the person they are porting for to make it worth while.As far as I know (I really need to store such statements somewhere...) they are paying to get the right and source of the game are solely earning from the sales.

Quoting: EhvisPeople (and most animals) are naturally selfish. It takes a conscious effort to consider the needs and wishes of others. Unfortunately there will always be people that are either incapable or unwilling to do so."Considering the needs and wishes of others" includes the needs and whishes of those prefering something else than Total War. Obviously.
