I would make the word depend on the development process.
If Feral got a snapshot every now and then and tries to make it run on linux, I'd call it "(simlutaneous) port", but not if Feral had continous write access to the general code repository. There are possibilities in-between, so in the end, we cannot really judge.
Important is that they obviously worked were close enough to the development process to be able to provide a high-quality Linux version

It's running so bad on Windows that the performance nearly equals that on Linux? *duckandcover*
No, seriously: Great work, Feral. Bought for full price this time.
(With a Steam controller, the package is waiting for me today! Yeah!)

In absolute numbers (of "fun hours" ), it's more than I need.

Quoting: Mountain ManAnother way to look at it is that correctly, 1/3 of the Steam catalog is currently available for Linux. Three-years ago, there were zero! Linux gamuing has grown by leaps and bounds in a short amount of time.It's also a matter of perspective: If you come from 100%, 30% may seem little, if you come from about 0%, it's much.

I don't like this Linux website rivalry and bashing.
We should pull together.
In the same direction.

Quoting: GuestI'm getting occassional texture popin from SSD.Quoting: wvstolzingI wonder whether there'll be any improvement with respect to texture pop-in, which is awful right now on my system (gtx970, 361.28 drivers).Disable level streaming. Your HDD is slow for some reason probably.

My current stack has some more hours of
* Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna
* Grid: Autosports
... and not yet begun:
* Alien: Isolation
* Shadowrun Hong Kong
* XOM 2
* Divinity: Original Sin
Even with two hours a day, which I hardly have time for, that would be at least two months of gaming, I guess.

Quoting: Mountain ManAnd I had some guy on the Steam forums yesterday trying to convince me that Linux gaming was never going to happen. Guess he hadn't kept up with current events.I had one yesterday claiming that it might happen some day. I'm answering those that to me, Linux gaming gives me more to play than I have time for it - it's just a smaller stack of shame.

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLFor now The Talos Principle on Vulkan is only wrapped... Nothing interested in performance state.They wrapped "engine design around Vulkan", not Vulkan around OpenGL or something. All fine.

Quoting: YasserGreat news, but will need to download again or come by updates?There's already an update in the public beta branch available (it does not yet support Vulkan on Linux, as said - in a few days though).
Vulkan 1.0 specification and SDK have been released

The nvidia drivers with beta Vulkan support have got the version number 355.00.26, my Debian drivers have got 355.11 - so should Vulkan already be included? Or is there some number confusion (like a ".00" too much)? Is there any easy way to query if the driver supports Vulkan?
