I like the art style, looks amazing. it seemed from the trailer all the characters use martial arts to some degree, or did i miss something? Kind of wish there was more variety to each character's fight style. still looks like i might give it a go, if reviews show this to be decent.

I say all ports are welcome ports new and old alike. I bought KOTOR II (again), because my really old CD bundle code didn't work on steam. Plus I felt I didn't really give this game it's just due back when it came out, I think I was a bit burnt out on RPGs at the time.
I do like the fact indie game devs are making niche titles that most big companies wouldn't bother with because the sales wouldn't be supposedly as grand. Some of the most innovative games are indie games though and are quickly becoming trend setters. Some of these titles like Lords of Xulima, Starbound and Planet Explorers are the niche games I've been wanting for awhile.

To each is their own, but I for one am very pleased what has come out for Linux and also what is planned in the near future. I expect things to get a lot better once Vulkan is the standard.

I've been playing the unstable version for the last couple months, it's amazing at all the new features and work going into this game. it's also been quite a bit of working keeping my custom mod up to date from all the new changes with weapons. really cool stuff all around. the next major release shouldn't be to long from now, it seems like a lot of work going into the story and the mysterious ARK for the 1.0 release.

just like the PS1, Sega Master System and Xbox (original) were not overnight successes either. there's a lot of growing pains to happen. there's a number of issues that haven't been fully worked out with the Steam Machines to really make theme a viable alternative. Which most of which can be fixed with a few software updates.
Another major factor is how Vulkan and Android will help push the development standpoint on Vulkan being a Standard. The main thing Valve has to do is polish up the user experience on SteamOS and keep moving forward with development software for Linux.
It's going to be a bumpy road but I feel there is light at the end of the tunnel for all Linux users as long as Valve is willing to stick this out and make it right.
I think Valve will have to get a more steady partner as far as hardware manufacturing goes and make sure the overall design of the Steam Machines remain modular and to give a "standard" for Steam Machines in general.

I hope they bring total war: shogun 2 to linux soon, I've been wanting to play that for a long time. have considered playing it on wine. but I'm patient enough to see if we get a linux port.
