All I see is yellow lights, so it must be Deus Ex, HR or Mankind Divided. I might just be seeing what I want to see, though.

Quoting: WorMzyI got the steam survey today too.

Not sure if that was an April fools, or if I'm the 1% for this month.
I, too, will be part of the 1% this month! Got it yesterday for the first time as well.

Done.
But was Witcher 3 really announced for Linux at GDC? Was there anything in addition to the SteamOS sale? I'd love to see any sort of confirmation from CDPR about this.

Specs?

Quoting: dubigrasuWith every possible setting on low and with the lowest possible 16:9 resolution you can get this:
Thanks! I think I'll wait for another patch. From the comments here, it seems to be really hard to predict what kind of performance to expect on any given hardware.

Dying Light Major Patch Released, Performance Finally Okay On Linux (UPDATED)

Quoting: dubigrasuIs clearly an improvement in performance, probably with a very good PC it might be playable.
Not for me though: AMD FX8350, GTX 780, 16 GB RAM and I have something like 30 FPS from previously 20.
Hope they don't stop here.
What kind of settings were you using? I have a GTX 770, and if the 780 gets about 30 fps, I think I should wait for some more patches after all.
