It will be interesting if they manage to get the ship moving, being able to warp around to different systems and do away missions. Not a bad effort, hopefully copyright trolls don't sink it.

Oh i actually have to explain it. If i am a game dev and I have some linux users asking for a port now currently the options are one do it in house which means hiring staff two have feral do it which obivously incurs costs. Or 3 do nothing and wait for linux users to buy windows copies and play it through wine meaning i have to do fuck all and i still get 100 percent profit. Which one would you choose if its anything other than option 3 your lying or have never worked in large corporation.
The developers are still better off packaging up DXVK with their steam release and make it Linux install and all done for the player. Most people won't have the patience to mess with DXVK regardless of how easy people think it is!

Either way this is no different to doom and many other violent video games IMO, people are seriously shallow these days and cherry pick things under an ideal of standards but let's be honest, COD/BF4/this.... it's all the same kind of violence in the end!

Stop being a snowflake!

Somebody was telling me that 396.24.10 has poorer opengl performance compared to mainstream driver, I haven't done any tests myself to confirm that or not.

Some thoughts on Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War

The Tyranid threat often had the emporium break tradition, except when the Tyranid attacks chaos forces that is (something about being a threat to its food supply), then they just slowly back away.

Allot of those problems go away when you start integrating everything into a slim motherboard all-in-one package.
