Quoting: HonorEDnlKThe Unity increase could be to the greater number of responses submitted.
I used to loath unity, and always use MATE or LXDE, however my gaming rig is on my HDTV in my living room and I think the look of unity suits that more.
Also unity is far better than it used to be.
On laptops I use MATE.

Quoting: rea987The Linux launch of The Witcher 2 was a huge disaster

Yes it would have been nice to be in native OpenGL but it wasn't.
Maybe you need a better graphics card?

I have a GTX 770 and I found witcher 2 performed far better when I turned off the ubersampling option.

I played FF 7 to 13 and they got progressively worse. they peaked around 10, 12 was good but 13 was too dumbed down. FF is over as far as I'm concerned, although square enix have redeemed themselves slightly with the amazing tomb raider reboot.
