Quoting: c3224Guys, idiots who use Python, Pearl, C#(mono), Java, Javascript (or any other scripting language except Lua) etc. cant make good software or use complex/advanced stuff like Vulkan, OGL, Posix etc., they are just too stupid and/or lazy, end of story.
Hehe, funny stuff. :D

(No, I'm not laughing with you, I'm laughing at you.)

Quoting: Kuduzkehpanmac os will support vulkan its not so different than OpenGL and METAL wont gonna be popular or Trending. And vendors are more mature to build vulkan ready graphic drivers for mac os.
Unless you know something the rest of the industry doesn't, Mac will not support Vulkan. Apple are putting their eggs in the Metal basket. Apple make/approve the drivers, so you can't just slot Vulkan into Mac like you can do on Linux and Windows.
Also Vulkan is very different from OpenGL. The only thing these API's do have in common is that both are managed by the Khronos Group. In fact Vulkan and Metal are more likely to have something in common than Vulkan and OpenGL do.

As Liam said, Apple isn't likely to support Vulkan on IOS or OSX. Molten [External Link] could make this problem go away, we'll see.

The game seems really fun. Too bad my friends have probably already lost interest, and playing with random strangers isn't really my cup of tea. I'll most likely still get it but I might have to wait for a sale. Happily the Steam summer sale isn't far off.

Quoting: AnjuneIt's out for Windows. I don't want to wait two more months (never mind how long it'll really take) now that I've seen how gorgeous it is :(

But what can ya do
You know what they say: "Waiting makes it better!" Nice to be a Linux gamer eh? We sure spend a lot of time waiting...
At least it's more affordable that way... *smirk*
Silver lining spotted.

I'm a sucker for a good comedy adventure. Nice to see there's a demo. If it tickles my funny bone, the game's sure to end up high on my wishlist.

My games aren't detected either. I wonder if this doesn't work for steam keys bought in humble bundles?

Quoting: tuubiThe switched colours and sort order in the AMD chart threw me off a bit. Would be nice if these three tables were all laid out the same, with open source at the top.
Noted and fixed, Open Source is always first on those now, so the colour and sorting both matches in all three.
Cool. These charts really underline the awesome progress of AMD's open-source efforts. I'm sure there are a few AMD developers who'd be very happy to see these results. They must be doing something right if such a large percentage of Linux gamers prefer the open-source driver already.
