Total War: Attila Invades Its Way Onto Linux
12 Dec 2015 at 11:12 am UTC

Attila seems to have big software bottlenecks just like COH2. In Attila on the highest graphics settings in the benchmark, I'm seeing only between 35-40% GPU utilization, and just about 25% CPU usage per core spread across 12 cores. This gives me about 19 FPS average, which looking at the low hardware load is hardly surprising...

Hardware; i7-5820k, 16GB, Geforce GTX 980Ti, with Ubuntu 14.4 and 355.11 Nvidia driver.

I'm for categories based on genre.
One question though, what about games that were released in 2014, between the last GOTY awards and the end of the year - are they included this year?

Steam Machines, Steam Link & Steam Controller Officially Released & SteamOS Sale

Total War: Rome 2 should have been a RELEASE title - very disappointed in CA about this. And they can't say they didn't have enough time, it was announced so long ago it feels like it was still in the dark ages!

Off topic, but I just got a Steam Client update which finally sorts the Big Picture mode Store for my platform - namely Linux. Now that is leaving things to the last minute...!
