Quoting: Renzatic GearThis is one of the things keeping me tethered to Windows. If I can Designer and B2M here, I could practically stay in Linux forever, minus a game or two.

Suggestion: keep a cheap $200 - $400 Windows Box (or Laptop) around and Remmina RDP or NoMachine connect via LAN, I do this in emergency situations. It's nice to never leave Gnome, Plasma 5 is nice too.

FUCK YEAH!

I would love a FPS benchmark comparison ASAP, I'm especially excited about the performance boost to Ark when they build their Vulkan Interface.

I've watch +4 Stardew Valley already, my peeps are playing on WINE with incredible stability so far. The FNA Developer even offered to port it as it has so few dependencies.

I'm playing lots of Counter Strike: Source, should get back to Bioshock Infinite but I think the computer ate my saves. Distance is hella fun, exceeded my already high expectations.

Announcer sounds too serious, instant turn off. Interested nonetheless looks like the story may be good?

Quoting: GuestThe problem this year is that VR [at GDC] is going to drown everything else out while not paying attention to much else. :-/

Pass. $800 for a headset that requires performance from CPU's and GPU's that barely exist yet.

Maybe developers are excited, but as a gamer I'm not sure I'll ever be excited by VR.

As for RocketLeague, feeling a lot of excitement and disappointment. This title has been a rodeo.

I'm rocking two GTX 970's right now in my rigs and the good part about nVidia cards is it generally plays anything at a good framerate.

We exclusively use Archlinux. That one poster who dual booted to Windows on AMD for games that didn't run on Linux was interesting but I would rather be 100% Linux.

I would have loved to have bought some AMD 390's and gained the open source driver advantages of running things like Plymouth and having better TTY state changes and preservation of GPU over state changes. However this time last year I couldn't justify throwing $800 into AMD and getting a buggy problematic experience. Maybe for their HSA APU's which are open source but not for their GPU's.

I guess I want games on Linux and I want it now, and I want it to run good so even though I loose 30-50% performance on the GTX 970's they perform adequately.

I would love for our next cards to be AMD, however AMD is going to have to give me driver reasons to make the jump, not just Ideological or being Technically superior in hardware specs.

Real World Performance equaling or trumping nVidia in Open Driver needs to outweigh the loss of games that don't run well on AMD Linux.

This time period of Linux is like watching the fall of Berlin Wall, or waking up September 11th, 2001, or the fall of the Roman empire.

It seems that Push is coming to Shove and this whole Microsoft Store lock-jaw tactic may yet prove futile as SteamOS/Linux is becoming a mature platform.

Can't wait to get this :) Very exciting time to live and watch Linux.

When will developers realize that simple sometimes is just as good or better than an all out assault for the best map graphics.

This looks like CS:S and that gives me a big warm feeling like I would love the fuck out of it.
