I had the lower textures issue after update but it goes away if you delete both shader caches (game's and Nvidia's).

Batman: Arkham Knight for Linux & SteamOS cancelled

I was actually surprised to see the port still on for so long, that is the news that I knew it will come one day.
(while secretly still hoping for a port performing better than in Windows)

What Youtube thing?

American Truck Simulator has an early release, day one for Linux

Quoting: LarianWhat is the appeal of these truck driving games? I was an OTR driver for 7 years all over the lower 48 states, and for the life of me I can't imagine why anyone would want to do this for fun. I'd rank it up there with (hopefully) non-existent titles such as "Factory Worker Simulator" or "McDonald's Lunchtime Rush".

Hate me if you want (and I mean this in all friendliness and good humor), but what the hell do you all see in games like this?
I don't know..is just driving and listen to some good music while enjoying the view.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter Linux & SteamOS port has been put on hold
1 Feb 2016 at 3:44 am UTC

Quoting: wojtek88@dubigrasu you're right - it's Flying Wild Hog.
Anyway, as far as I remember Leszek left the whole porting business after starting to work on Darksiders port for Nordic Games (Source [External Link]). He did not leave gaming industry, but does not work on porting games to Linux.
Fact that Leszek does not work on Vanishing of Ethan Carter anymore makes it less possible that we receive port of this game.
Right, but still, Flying Hog does Hard Reset Redux and Shadow Warrior 2 so maybe with him being there we'll have more chances to get those :)

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLLeszek Godlewski (ex The Farm51) who port to Linux Painkiller H&D and Deadfall Adventures, working after quit from Farm51 in The Astronauts on Ethan. Now Leszek quit from The Astronauts and now woking in People Can Fly. So maybe this is reason why we can get Ethan port for Linux?
Isn't Flying Wild Hog?

Quoting: dubigrasuSo why not using Phoronix test suite for this?
Is Linux/Windows, easy to install and can run tests in controlled conditions easy to reproduce.
I am no expert, but I believe the Phoronix tests are designed to benchmark hardware by having a consistent batch of games to test against. Does it have the ability to plug in different games?
You can use an awful lot of games, reorder/highlight the results using various criteria, save results in various forms, compare your tests with others, view detailed hardware/test/logs details and what else:

It's stale for one thing...
Can you give some details?
