Feral already said multiple times in the IRC chan that skyrim would be too complex to port.

Quoting: LordpkappaA native Vulkan version for Linux will probably runs faster than Windows...Not sure, wine already makes native vulkan and opengl calls.

Quoting: lucinosIf anyone has to buy again games to play them on linux he will just not do it and that would completely destroy linux as a gaming platform. Now I can tell my friend at least to try linux. This would not be possible if linux games are tied to another platform.I never told about buying the full game again, I told about selling binaries as a "low price DLC". But I agree with you second point.

Steam must allow developers to separate platform purchases, like you buy the game full price for one platform (any one), and then you buy a low price DLC to get binaries for another platform. Why ? We all have many old games bought for windows that were lately ported to linux, and we got those ports for free, developers will not get some reward for that, porting can be a painful work. Separating platform revenues will help developers to be conforted to make ports.
Make sure you play 'Gone Home' this weekend, as it's free for a short time

Could be cool to divide a game sale into packages : buy main content 90% of full price, and then buy any platform binaries 10% of full price.. Then if you want another platform, pay it another 10% of full price (I always thought it was not fair to have for free a linux release for a game owned years ago only on windows). Like this porters will always have correct due. (of course game content should have same validity on any store..)
Rocket League released for SteamOS, it's in beta

I am really surprised... All this time the developper said he delayed the game release because he wanted to release a perfect completed port, and we get now a beta... the issues are :
- no translations
- no sync with player stats and game settings (all my conf when playing with wine is not sync, while it was on other windows computers)
- sometimes the game crash just after launching
- performs slower than wine with exact same settings
So it's a beta, but not as clean as they wanted to announce it.
