Quoting: ExpalphalogI love 4Xs but real-time combat is a deal breaker for me.Real-time combat is the deal for me. Was missing games with real time combat...
I love the fact that as a Linux gamer I can actually afford to be picky now.

My guess is that if it wasn't Linux, we'd see BSD in the spot Linux is now.

What the hell are they statically linking to the linux binary? That's insane :D.

Linux main issue after Vulkan, if they do a Vulkan port, is Input and Window Management.
There are quadrillion solutions for that, if they fail on that, they are a fail. I doubt that. The work for proper scene creating and input management shouldn't take them more than a week. If even. At least if their engine is a bit designed for abstraction, which I'm pretty sure of.
The hard part is quality testing. Vulkan, even in our drivers, evolves fast. Okay, SteamOS may not be the issue, but we've to face it: Majority is Ubuntu with historical binary drivers (if we talk about Vulkan), that's an issue.

Though, no official note they are allowed to release on Linux. But that's certainly a good find.

That would be really huge. I have to tell my wife to hide my wallet <not>!
Though, often that's just tests they're doing, which get published with the rest on SteamDB, but never actually get released. Like engine tests for SteamOS/other platforms.
Though, Deus Ex is one of my favourite sequels, that would be HUGE .. for me.

Star Citizen, Ryse: Son of Rome, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Homefront: Revolution

Survival, Shooters, RPGs, FPS, Turn-Based strategy, Simulators, RTS...
All I'm missing is RTS with build-up like good old StarCraft, C&C or similar.

Sad. Wondering what it will be, since that game we certainly will never see for Linux.

Quoting: m2mg2I would really like them to fix the controller issues. Does this update fix the controller problems? Has anyone been able to play the game successfully with a Steam Controller (the controller problems are Linux only)?Seems to be only on linux, yes.
