After being luxuriously entertained by Feral's hectic release schedule in the last months, this sale will be my ticket to pickup some indie gems from my humble wishlist (cough!).
Humble as in modest, not Humble Store.

How is X Rebirth now with latest patch and all DLC? The reviews are so mixed on Steam, it's hard to know what to think about it.

Quoting: FaalagornYou're right, it looks like CEF still has 32 bit builds, so this is Valve's decision alone. Only MAC has 64 bit only:Quoting: FredOIf i'm not completely mistaken, the Steam client uses Chromium as its browser backend. Chrom(ium) dropped support for 32bit in about version 46-48(?), so maybe Valve doesn't have much choice in the matter if they keep using Chromium.Chromium v55.0.2883 browser works fine on my wife's Asus Eee 901 32-bit Arch (the CPU don't support 64-bit at all), which actually is funny as the patch log says that they upgarded to "CEF v55.0.2883" (CEF = Chromium Embedded Framework), so the same browser core that works fine standalone.
Can't say anything about the official Chromium team's support though, but at least it works fine :)

On the other hand I might just be talking a whole lot of nosh, in which case just grab another coffee and be happy :-)
Edit: Chromium not Chrome.

Quoting: BeamboomDo we have to do anything special for it to run on Vulkan instead of OGL?You can choose the API in the graphics setting in game, or add this command line option:
+gfx_strAPI "VLK"

It runs just a "bit" better with Vulkan ;-)
OpenGL: 71.8 Ave FPS
Vulkan: 157.2 Ave FPS
Vulkan can't come fast enough to Linux gaming!

The Wood Elves look awesome - nice new content indeed! What's with the Grey and Jade Wizards, can we expect them on Linux too?

From a quick test I can say that they "may" finally have fixed the random crash when entering a new offline match. Also I can use the Pillars arena for the first time ever without it crashing. Can anyone else confirm this? There's no mention of Linux specific fixes in the release notes.
Edit: No problem with performance so far.
