Reminds me of Limit Theory, game appearance wise. Yes that game is still being developed but instead of being a 2-3yr project it looks like it might end up being a 10yr one since the dev has early schizophrenia or something (at least following his logs, that appears to be the case)
Editorial: No, Valve is not killing SteamOS or the Steam Controller

Its the same old argument most windows fans use, and that is because Linux isn't on par with Windows with drivers/features/games/performance then its declining and failing.
However as we all know it has been getting considerably better over time and even more so lately, things like these don't ever start in reverse like many think, it always starts off bad and gradually gets better and will always take longer then you want.

I wonder how Skyrim Special Edition runs, I know Fallout4 just barely works but last time I tried skyrim it was unable to render main menu correctly and had some weird resolution lock going on.

Well at least their doing something, MEANWHILE back at CDPR they still haven't released even a beta of the GOG Galaxy to Linux users... Which is like giving them the slow windup middle finger if you ask me, given the demand for it is the highest requested vote on their forum!

They must have put some real effort into the game to make those few square polygons choke a system down...

It took a game like this to finally add in the minigun as a weapon for defense. LOL

With my FuryX and Warthunder and mesa17.2dev glthread causes the game to crash on launch, however there are people with other cards reporting it works. I will need to check again since last time I tried was a month ago, unlikely much has changed. Might be specific to AMDGPU, perhaps other people were using radeonsi which would explain things.
ARK: Survival Evolved has just had a price increase, it has more than doubled

They were meant to release dx12 then Vulkan update for the title LONG time ago, its unknown why they have continued to delay it since they refuse to communicate with the open source community or community in general about specific issues.
I'd say their ready to shelf this title, seen this happen before were a company releases their game to retail market broken and then just moves on to another title.
Sadly this developer is going to use this as evidence why not to develop for Linux, even thought it's their fault for putting %99.9 of their team and effort into content and not actual engine saving patches and fixes along with perf updates...People may come for the content but they stay for the gameplay which largely involves engine improvements.

The Witcher 3 didn't come to Linux likely as a result of the user-backlash from The Witcher 2

Unfortunately these extreme haters won't ever leave the gaming community, developers must accept that they are the loudest ones and just ignore them. They are not representative of the community as a whole.
In saying that if they added in VulkanAPI support to their Witcher3 game then it would make for a rather smooth transition to Linux, and allowing for windows users to enjoy the benefits also. Trying to convert DX11 to OGL IMO never seems to yield very good results.
