Humble Store has a Square Enix sale with some top Linux games going cheap
5 March 2019 at 7:19 pm UTC
I played the FF7 PC version back then and I LOVED it.
Yet, while other games from my youth (NES + SNES) typically aged well graphically, FF7 is a pain to me.
I'd like to see a remake on PC/SteamOS but def not the original version.

Quoting: NezchanQuoting: Perkeleen_VittupääGood steals. But who does not yet own those!?
Me. I've only got Tomb Raider and the mobile version of Lara Croft GO.
Quoting: AsuSquare! Please put any final fantasy on linux. Preferably FFVII.
I'd be down for VI, IX, the remaster of X, and/or XII. I do know VII runs well with Proton at least.

ProtonDB released another data dump, here's a quick look over some February 2019 info

Ah, I see. Thanks.
So Vulkan is properly supported by WINE as a pass through by now?

Quoting: GuestQuoting: subHow does DOOM (2016) fit here?
id Tech 6 supports OpenGL and Vulkan.
So how does Proton (which uses DXVK, right?) come into play?
Btw, does WINE support Vulkan by now?
"Proton" is basically Wine + various patches + DXVK. DXVK is (originally) designed for DX11 -> Vulkan translation. It isn't used at all for any games that natively use OpenGL or Vulkan, so for those games (e.g Doom), think of "Proton" as just Wine + various patches.

Feral Interactive confirm DiRT 4 for Linux due "in the next couple of months"

Yes, I also considered this case. :)

Quoting: Luke_NukemQuoting: subWhy not Dirt Rally 2.0?
Is Codemasters against a simultaneous Linux release?
Don't get me wrong. It's not that DiRT 4 is a bad game (I don't know) but it doesn't help the platform, if AAA game ports usually appear years later (if at all). Reception outside hard-core Linux gamers is that the platform is not worth to be served on release.
I'm sure I read something somewhere that Feral actually has to buy the rights to port a game to be able to do the ports. If that's true then it would explain older games being ported as they would be cheaper.
Don't quote me on that though, I could be wildly off base. Liam might recall something.

Bought it. This is beyond lovely and definitely worth the money.

Did you know this is a thing: "Cockchafer Soup"?
Wow.

A reminder about Steam's platform-specific wishlist feature you should be using
22 February 2019 at 12:25 pm UTC
That seems to contradict what callcifer says.
So what's the case actually?

Quoting: wintermuteQuoting: EikeI switched off the emails instead.
I want the emails when they refer to Linux games.
Quoting: subWill I still get informed about that game being on sale even if it only has Windows version?
Yes you will, this is precisely the problem I have with the system.

Don't think so. I sometimes pragmatically buy a game on sale that I want to play even when it has only a Windows version.
So on one hand I'd like to inform the devs and publishers that I'm actually interested in a native Linux version, but not getting informed when it is on sale and (currently) has no Linux version is a no go for me.
