Dying Light Released For Linux, Some Thoughts, You May Want To Wait
29 Jan 2015 at 9:38 am UTC

Quoting: KeyrockHas anyone figured out how to disable the filmgrain effect on Linux yet? They've managed to do it on Windows, but the file structure is different on Linux. As best as I can figure out, there isn't even a separate folder (commonly located in ~/.local) for settings and such on Linux, everything is in the game file location withing the Steam folder.
Figured out that right path.
It's just like in Dead Island, under <steampath>/SteamApps/common/Dying Light/DW/out/
If you unzip e.g. Data0.pak there is foldier "data", but in linux you need to change that to "Data" and under that there is "scripts" -> "Scripts" etc.

Hmmm, performance is pretty bad.
On start when in tower, fps is great on 1080p best quality, but after leaving tower fps is something between 0 and potato.
After dropping to 720p and worst possible quality, game is "playable" but still kinda diashow.

New Minecraft Game Announced Coming From Telltale Games, Linux Status Unknown
19 Dec 2014 at 7:38 am UTC

It's not comming to linux, telltalegames haven't done anything that support linux.
Also "The first episode will be released some time in 2015, and will be available on Xbox consoles, PlayStation consoles, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based devices." implies that there isn't any plans to support linux (PC and Mac separated).
