With how many ports Feral has been cranking out lately we may start to question this :)

I wouldn't put much stock in the response of a level designer on this topic. Not being mean at all, but he really may not even know Linux if he saw it.

Quoting: ziabiceFun Fact: "Mad Max" and "Shadow of Mordor" are listed into the best of average action games on PC [External Link] list by Rock,Paper, Shotgun website.
Please Feral port some more games from that list (ie: Sleeping Dogs)!
Great news about Mad Max. I second for Sleeping Dogs! :)

I finished this game a few days ago. I'm not a huge fan of the horror aspects, but I really enjoyed the story. If I had a top ten list for stories in games, this game would probably be on it.

Hopefully Mad Max. I'm guessing that DX:MD will come out a bit later with Vulkan support. Either of these two games would be pretty awesome though :)

I picked up a copy yesterday. It's only $1.50, quite relaxing, and an easy 100% achievements. :)

Quoting: wolfyrionI am learning C++ from scratch because of the Unreal Engine but I thought that Unity and other gaming engines were mostly using C++... I guess I Was wrong :|
You are actually correct! :) Unity and Godot are both written in C++ too as far as the core engines go, but the scripting languages are things like C#, GDScript, Unity Script, etc. This is the ideal way to write games since it lowers the barrier of entry to more people and significantly lowers the build times for the game developers. So, the engine developers use C++ and the game developers use C# (or whatever scripting language).

Quoting: vlademir1Stick with learning C++, it's easier to move from C++ to most other common OOP languages (C#, Java, etc) than it is to learn those and move to C++.
100% Agreed!
