Quoting: liamdaweA new partnership for some ports could be very interesting indeed. I'm both excited and worried due to their wording, but I think their "reflect on it all" is supposed to be more playful than alarming.

That is true, and with the word "aurora" ... a BioWare engine ... :-).

It's UE4 right? There may be technical difficutlies too.. a lot of UE4 games sadly ended up having quite some issues on Linux.

Better that and they polish the game instead of releasing it bugged, but I hope they don't abdon it due the difficulties, as other studios already did.

This looks very promising to me. Will keep an eye on it.

With that specs they'll look into a dxvk/wine/proton port rather than a native port.

Sounds like a game I'd like. Will keep an eye on it, linux support + kickstarter even with official announcement - was burnt too often to pledge, but I hope the developer will be able to bring us a port. If it happens, it's a buy.

It's sadly reality that a lot of devs decide to bring out just a windows version in the end. If I was a windows user I'd take the risk of the pledge, as kickstarter evolved for linux users - I don't.

I hoped for a feature like that for a long time now. Depending on how this is implemented it could be great.

Quoting: YoRHa-2BBut stating that game engines are not always compliant to standards is a massive understatement. You won't believe how broken some games are and how painful it can be to work around those issues. Low-effort Japanese PC ports like Yakuza 0 or Nier tend to be the worst offenders.

Sorry for that. Because I primarily blamed it on driver bugs until I realized that some things may are not as they should be...

Quoting: CorbenIs there a list of games, where people reported they got problems using DXVK?
I found on the net that Blizzard won't give you problems playing Overwatch using DXVK, but e.g. Warframe and Dark Souls 3 should be avoided.

I'd personally search the DXVK bugtracker on github, there are a lot of issues with games reported, and if not - report it. They devs actively maintain the bugtracker, but they may require quite a lot of detailled information in the bugs to fix them or work around it (as driver behaviour on windows/linux)
