Looks Like Grid Autosport Could See A Linux Release Soon

Quoting: liamdaweI can understand why they might have put it in though, I mean who wants to play a racing game where you're so much better than the AI that they are always in your dust, where's the challenge in that?
Me totally. I cannot remember which game it was, but I had difficulties to win the first races. So I tried and tried, got better on it, and finally, I had mastered the game and had won all races. Then I did the first race once again, just for fun, and lapped them all (not sure if it's the right word, I was able to drive more rounds then them). I had my challenge, and, I could get to see that I really had gotten better on it.

Who would want to play a racing game where, at whatever difficulty level you play and however good or bad you are, the other cars are always only some seconds behind or some seconds in advance? Not me, for sure.

Which is sad, because it looks very good, just like photos, and I'd love to buy yet another Feral game!

I've read through some reviews and threads, and it seems this game has rubber-banding?

Frozen Synapse is the game I played (by far) the most on Steam.
A very good strategy game with a very nice community (at least back then).

It's not my cup of coffee, but judging from the demo I think it is very well executed.

Nvidia Video From SIGGRAPH Talks About Vulkan

Quoting: EikeI fear Vulkan will primarily be seen as a mobile API.
This fear is so far away from reality that it's even funny. :D
Windows will go with DirectX, it always did.
Apple can force whatever they like on their systems, and they already started to roll their own.
What big marktes are left - Linux or mobile?
Hmm...

Obsidian Entertainment Say Linux's Future Is Good With Pillars Of Eternity

Quoting: MyeulCA bit off-topic : do you think the vulkan specs will be released simultaneously as the steam machines?
No. It's neither that closely related nor would they want to push such an expression. It's cross-platform.
