Batman: You'll hunt me. You'll condemn me, set the dogs on me. Because that's what needs to happen. Because sometimes…Windows isn't good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

Gordon's Son: Batman? Batman! Why is he running, Dad?

Commissioner Gordon: Because Linux needs him.

As someone already mentioned, Mad Max is being published by WB, whereas Just Cause 3 is published by Square Enix. Even with the same developer, I would imagine that the distributor would have to be on board with it. I'm only imagining because I don't know who owns the copyright or any of the legal specifics. WB seems to be more Linux friendly than Square Enix right now. That could always change though.

Isn't competition great? Hopefully, this means we will see some more indie UNREAL-based games to rival all of those Unity-based games.

I'm probably going way out on a limb here, but we might as well ride this hype train as far as it will take us.

Shadow of Mordor uses a modified version of Monolith's Lithtech Jupiter EX engine. It is conceivable that Monolith could port the engine to Linux. After all, it wouldn't be the first time [External Link].

Monolith is a subsidiary of WB, so if the engine were ported, we could possibly see even more games that use the engine ported as well. It might be a long shot, but we're all smoking optimism on this hype train. Right?

While I too would love to see the game come to Linux, the fact that most of those games are on Linux doesn't negate that they are also on other platforms. Also, not all bundles, even from Humble Bundle, include Linux support for every game they feature. Having said all of that, I still hope you're right and I'm wrong.

I just played it for an hour. Great game!

It does seem, however, like the game locks at 30 fps on some of the combat scenes, though not all of them. There is no vsync option or anything like that, so it's difficult to tell. I always get 60 fps on the card screens.

I'm getting on average 42 fps on my 750 ti with the highest settings (still lower than I would expect from this though). The cards are quite even in performance so you should be getting around the same.

Does turning down the settings increase performance? I know that sounds like an obvious question, but in some games, it has no noticeable effect.

What is the performance like now? I played this several months ago and it really struggled to get about 20 FPS.

It uses the Unity engine, right? I'm curious to know what your system specs are if you're only getting 20 FPS. I'm asking as someone interested in getting the game. I haven't played it yet.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Dirt 3. Maybe that's more wishful thinking than anything.
