Google have now expanded the launch titles for Stadia up to 22

Quoting: Phlebiac
Quoting: Liam DaweFeral confirmed on Twitter they didn't do the Stadia ports.
That seems rather... disappointing?
I think it's more a case that Feral handle the publishing, so the code can't just be handed over. Feral would need a deal with Stadia and the original developer/publisher. We have no idea on the inner workings of it all. For all we know Feral just didn't want in on it.

Quoting: skinnyrafPity that there is no "budget" VR option that runs under Linux. Not only a stronger PC is needed than for VR under Windows, but lower spec headsets are Windows-only.
I think the most budget VR on Linux is right now is picking up the original Vive second hand? I think that would be the cheapest, unless I am mistaken but apart from Vive, Pro and Index and I don't think any others work with SteamVR + Linux.

No it's not FOSS, that would have been stated if it was. Might look into doing an interview with them when it's further along and they put out their plans for a full release.

Removed the link to the Google Doc, as the owner removed all the info and just left a note up dissing PC Gamer so it's not worth linking to now.

Quoting: SirLootALotSo we got the bethesda games, that use Vulkan anyway, RDR2 and ferals Linux ports of the TR series to use Vulkan, right?
I was hoping for more Vulkan adoption outside of Stadia but we'll have to wait how this develops in the future.
Feral confirmed on Twitter they didn't do the Stadia ports. Can't find where they said it in reply to someone now though, but I saw it.
My favourite website has it in the comments:

Quoting: poke86I'll have to give it another go, it looks really cool but it was totally unplayable last time I tried it, completely unresponsive controls I could only spiral to the ground at full speed :/
Sounds odd, I've never had a problem with the controls in it, they've always been pretty awesome.

Quoting: JarnoShoulnd't Metro Exodus be EGS exclusive?
Honestly, the way it's been going it mainly feels like EGS exclusives are literally just taking away from Steam given how they release elsewhere.
