IF the developer needs to they can just use the DXVK project and bundle it up for the game under Linux.
Not like ultra high framerate will be needed for a TBS, if its above 60fps then it should be fine.

A small but nice update on Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation and Linux support

Someone should point the developer to MoltenVK, quick!

Nevermind, seems they know. Didn't know that MoltenVK had critical missing features, figures. Maybe progress will be made eventually.

Feral Interactive have no plans to put their Linux ports on GOG

Steam does not stop developers releasing products on other platforms, so the decision is up to the original developer.

I don't know why some people are so hostile towards steam when often many games have DRM integrated with them to regulate the multiplayer components.

Only thing keeping me from preferring GOG over Steam, is missing GOG Galaxy for Linux, I won't take GOG seriously until they prove to me they properly support Linux users.
(note the linux releases are done by developers and have little to do with GOG website except for the Linux/Mac filter)

If they released GOG Galaxy for Linux, then perhaps things might change a bit. We can only dream.

War Thunder currently has a Vulkan renderer under development that you can try out

I've been pestering Gaijin for ages now about using Vulkan, good that they finally did. Maybe it will one day become the DEFAULT renderer for all platforms, now if they could only fix the poor economy at upper tiers with ground forces...

Serious Sam 4: Planet Badass has new screenshots and a much bigger world

Screenshots look average, what I see is bokeh dof and fsaa making it look better then it actually is.

Valve are easing up on what content is allowed on Steam

They certainly should have a adult content section, just age verify it with credit card details perhaps?

Of cause some parents give their kids full access to their credit cards for some reason. Credit/Debit in case of emergency? Either way you need to be careful who sees such content!
THINK OF THE CHILDREN, GOD forbid if they learn about the birds and bees from anything other then their perverted mates at school! (I learned about it from an Atari-2600 video game, HILARIOUS!)

Futuristic thriller 'State of Mind' from Daedalic Entertainment releasing August 16th with Linux support

There was a movie recently called Anon where everyone had eye implants in their body which controlled what they saw, it had a nice feature also such as mind controlled HUD system.

Me personally, I'll stick with the AR glasses rather then replace my eyeballs. Some people won't have a choice however, those who loose eye sight or a limb etc...

If a government wants to install anything into your brain/head/body, just don't mkay!

I see allot of sci-fi movies and stuff these days with people putting lots of hack-able and exploitable stuff in their body, people of the future sure seem ultra naive!
