Insurgency: Sandstorm for Linux not due until next year, with a beta likely first

This game was a total flop and they could have capitalized on the less crowded FPS genre on Linux.

Even if I were to play on Windows, it still remains overpriced and I heard the game performs poorly. Oh and the player base is low.

Wine 4.5 is now officially out with more Media Foundation APIs, Vulkan 1.1 and more

Quoting: BielFPs
Still more Media Foundation APIs implemented.
Does someone knows if this could improve something with wine games?
Hopefully Resident Evil 2 and 7

The Humble Hot Date Bundle is out with a number of Linux games included

These types of games set unrealistic expectations of women. No wonder there are so many Hikikomori in Japan.

Valve just released a big Steam Play update with Proton now based on Wine 4.2 & more

Does this mean Resident Evil 2 now works without Windows Media Foundation hacks?

The Linux port of DiRT 4 from Feral Interactive is releasing March 28th

Another racing game? Can we please have a Hitman 2 or something more varied?

It feels like all we get lately from Feral is old rally racing games and RTS. Mix it up!!

Proton 3.16-8 beta is out for Steam Play with DXVK 1.0 and game fixes

Does this fix the Windows Media Foundation errors with Resident Evil 2 and 7? It was requiring some manual config to get those running and it would be nice to have it auto.

Also, fixing games with Easy Anti Cheat (EAC) would be a nice benefit too.

Some information on why Wine is not going to be using DXVK

Henri needs to grow up and be less of a prick. If Proton is the direction going forward, then I’m fine with that. Valve can continue to leverage WINE and just use DXVK.

I hated using WINE as-is. Had to install an Ubuntu PPA, tinker with winetricks and playonlinux, and hope it would boot. Proton in Steam just works and the installs of any game I want is painless.

Valve adds even more gamepad support to their latest client beta

Speaking of GameCube, they should add support for the Wii U/Switch GameCube adapter.

The Steam Play whitelist just had a large update including The Witness and Wolfenstein: The Old Blood

It’s weird to have the second HD remaster of Monkey Island and not the first.

Windows 10 S might alarm Valve into boosting SteamOS again

I'd love if Valve updated the bundled libraries for the Steam client to Ububtu 18.04 in April.

Kinda pathetic it still ships with 12.04 libraries from 2012...
