Feral Interactive are teasing another Linux port

Quoting: MohandevirIt's just a feeling, looking at that knight on a Pegasus that makes me feel like "winged destruction coming down on us from the sky"... Just Cause 4.
Honestly, if it's Just Cause 4 I will literally die happy on the spot. It looks utterly insane and it's exactly the type of game we need as a platform.
Well... At least, Proton seems like a good alternative...

Absolutely! Kind of betraying my age a little. :)

Quoting: Guest... at the very least Valve have been investing in areas that do benefit GNU/Linux...
Do Epic ever contributed to some open source projects? I don't know the answer to this question but could it be the reason why we are so skeptical about Epic going Linux?

Still, I may be wrong, but Valve started contributing after the initial Linux announcement. Something similar may still apply to Epic. Let's wait and see.

Well, it's a Square Enix + Avalanche game (Mad Max)... There might be a sliver of hope... Maybe? :)

Awesome!

I only hope that the Steam Controller's usb dongles will be compatible... Not a big fan of using the bluetooth alternative...

Do you think we may hope for a futur integration with Kodi (OSMC/LibreELEC) and/or Retropi/Recalbox?

Thanks for the input, I was on the fence about Vaporum. I will probably buy it.
Wow, looks really nice. I may grab this one I think.
If you like dark humour, you're in for a treat! "Spoilers!" :)

Fear not Feral... I already waited to buy SofTR because I suspected that you were going to make a port and now that it is official, I will officialy wait for the Linux release to buy it. :)

Thanks Feral!

Steam Link hardware officially walks the plank, there's an app for that

Quoting: MohandevirI have a new RX 580 to test streaming with. Anyone know if the Mesa drivers are doing a good streaming job?
Unfortunately, hardware encoding is not yet supported with Mesa drivers :/
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4890 [External Link]

So it's running software-only, making use of a lot of CPU.
Sad but good to know... I tested and performances wasn't really good. 100% wired and had lots of stuttering. At the pace things are going, at least we may still hope that Mesa will eventually catch up.
