I think they should only after they sent me a private e-mail so my wife can't hide the credit card.
My bet is on Mad Max though.

Hopefully it will work well with the steam controller as I do not own a joystick at the moment.

Being worked on for some time now. Though, that they're finally going for SDL is a huge relieve.

Thought CryEngine was far from a finished Linux support. Did I miss something?
Though, I'd love to get my hands on this one, even with the known flaws. Some games which were down rated due to flaws turned out to be really nice games (in my opinion). Sword Coast Legends would be one of them, Vendetta - Curse of Raven's Cry would be if the bug in Linux was fixed where you can't continue due to the main quest line failing. Nuclear Dawn is one of them - love that one, sadly the player base died.

A grain of salt that Epic isn't working on this but it needs a community developer to do so. In my opinion this is something Epic should support if not even fully fund.
Though, I'll support him for the efforts, swallowing the salt...

I would think of Linux not being Day-1 but to a later date completely okay, even stating Linux on Kickstarter.
But turning it to an "if"... is pretty much fraud. But due to the terms of Kickstarter, there isn't anything you can do about it.
Though, I will remember that if they don't release for Linux, and I'm very picky when it comes to this kind of things when buying future games.

Quoting: TuxeeGot my Kickstarter funding back from them. Despite being complete pricks with their communication "policy" this worked without any hiccups and in a rather professional manner.Going to consider doing that too.
CD PROJEKT RED replied to me about The Witcher 3 and Linux, flat-out denying to answer any questions

This answer makes me a bit angry. What ever the reason this happened (I bought it when the SteamOS banner was up, never got it refunded), I think they or Valve owe me an explaination there. Since they happily took my money on wrong advertisement (by the way, european company, I could sue them over this by european law, and with this answer I am thinking on actually going for it).
As much as I like what they are doing and their out of question well done game, this communication department they should just get rid of.

GOG withdraw their statement about The Witcher 3 never planned for Linux, they have no idea

I think just CDPR was complaining about bad press because they probably had planned a SteamOS version.
Since they're not on DX12 they could never have hoped for Vulkan. The reason would be interesting, not judging if the port was done or not, but their decision base (financial, talent, ..) would be interesting. They're certainly not short on money after TW3, but they've to plan 5 years ahead.

Sad, TW3 is a really good game. But I have to say that CDPR always said they will be looking into it especially since they use their new engine version which is "a lot better portable", but never confirmed any plans.
I'm sure they could afford a port. My personal guess is that they planned not to do it in house, and after the experience with TW2 and the bad press, they stepped down from their plan.
