In fact graphics are what made me install it, Warcraft II being one of the games I played the most while being a teen-ager, along with the first Quake.

Quoting: coryrj19951hmm... anyone getting this [External Link] or this [External Link] error, or know how to fix it? And it segfaults when I press play from the main menu.Looks like a driver problem, what are you running the game on?

In fact I have no problem whatsoever with these post-processing effects. I think it can be used in a creative way, and in Alien: Isolation I think it adds to the lo-fi horror of the game.
In Dying Light, the film grain effect made me instantly think about some old evil horror film and to me it's okay if you consider the overall mood of the game, the problem is that it doesn't work that well outdoor. Having an option for it is always welcome, though.
But I don't think it is welcome in a competitive FPS...
[EDIT]OK in fact I didn't read the link above before posting, where A:I is actually listed as an exception.

For me last patch brought better performance, but this new patch doesn't. Well I won't complain, and I don't have a Windows partition to compare it to. I'm quite happy with it.

Wine Staging is not an official build and integrates patches that the official version doesn't include yet. That's how they got to integrate CSMT in the first place.
The CSMT patch used with Staging is becoming incompatible because CSMT is in the process of being included upstream. So actually, as soon as upstream Wine finishes working on CSMT, you will get it back and enabled by default.

Quoting: edono future support for CSMT its definitely bad news, that sucksYou must have misunderstood what is actually happening.

On another hand, do we really need to rely on those companies? Sure their games sell by millions, but they have been using the same old formula for so long that another company could very well take their place with something new. And if this something new runs on Linux...

Quoting: ZeloxI belive Both Blizzard and EA have stated they want to support Linux.Their recent statements about Linux prove quite the contrary. Also, there's still no proof the WoW client was not a fake.
Blizzard even hade a linux beta client for wow vanilla.
