Great interview Liam and BTRE, thank you for this. And thanks to Feral guys for giving such comprehensive answers. :-)

Lots of Square games got published recently. I realy hope the first Vulkan port is Nier: Automata!

This depot change is for the first season, right? I hope they decide to port the other seasons as well, that way I can buy the 3rd one on Linux instead of PS4 :-)

Quoting: TeodosioThat games is not available on Mac. However, I don't see any threads in the Steam Forum asking for when it will be available.
The GNU/Linux thread had a very large number of posts.
Anybody willing to reason on this?

I think a typical Mac user will not primarily be a gamer. They'll look at the App Store and see some games, choose one or a couple and be happy they have something to play. They won't care if it's brand new or 10 years old (or rather, they will when they see their brand new 2000 pound machine can't run the game properly or at all).

Now the Linux folk... they're a well-informed, demanding bunch, aren't they?

I'm writing this from a Macbook running Linux, so I believe I can say it all with a straight face.

Funding you Liam is the best spent money for me each month.

I hope this gets you millions. :-)

What a coincidence, I just got The Last Crusade for myself for Christmas... on the Atari ST.

Edit: It was also quite a bit more expensive than the version on GOG.

OT: I am also considering to buy a PS4, because I know I am missing some good games.

I have one of those. Consoles are great. I know I'm not getting the best graphical experience there is, but I know I'm getting the best (and only) experience on my console and this lets me simply enjoy the game, instead of endlessly tweaking options, re-running benchmarks and wondering what piece of hardware I should buy to make the game that little bit better.

If the Devs from EA, Ubisoft, Activision or Bethesda, in their spare time and adhonorem, develop a Linux version of the Windows game they are making, the Publisher will not complain for that unpaid work

Of course they will. Publishers want to have tight control over what gets put out and they want no rogue versions on the loose. It also means support requests for a product they're not prepared to, and see no commercial point in, supporting at all. Plus, I'm sure most of these companies have strong ties to Microsoft and probably don't want to get on their bad side for little or no benefit (at least as far as they can see).
