This will be interesting!
Looks like GOG Galaxy won't come to Linux any time soon, as it's "not a priority"

On the topic: Well it was quiet clear that they didn't have it on their priorities (as in on the very bottom). Now you at least have it stated.

Quoting: GuestSomehow this post made me really sad. I was expecting GOG Galaxy for Linux any time soon (as they wrote).Well you can contact support. Their support is great.
BTW GOG.com is now selling these "Pinata" things, where you get a random game. I bought 4 Pinatas and guess what: all games are Windows-only. Such a fail. Somehow did not expect that.

„The Feral Radar got distracted by a herd of geese. We're trying to fix it before it spots the incoming flock of ducks.“
So it is not the Norsca DLC.

Quoting: EhvisI will quote them:Quoting: rustybroomhandle"West Norwood" now seems to have vanished.Maybe it was simply the Norsca DLC.

Quoting: GuestWhat do you speak of?Quoting: DamonLinuxPLWitcher 3 and Witcher 1Witcher 1 Linux does kinda exist... but they didnt want to publish it. Probably because it runs fine on WINE. So it'll have to sit unloved in Git for now ;)

If I counted correctly, that's now 14 games (13 native, 1 in Wine) in total that have the feature turned on.
Matters for the above statement. Last I checked native means not using a wrapper.

Bioshock Infinite uses a wrapper (EON) too. And it improves some titles even with Wine. This is about single-threaded submission into the OpenGL command queue, not about the technology the game uses.

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

And let the WAR begin!
I will pick no side but would like to warn both sides, not to drag in community as they do not speak for community…
Anyway, I personally don't care. I wouldn't buy anything but native anyway. So for me, it's no loss.
It will be ready to play via Wine soon (I have put my bet for september, but we will see if i'm right), so I will do that. That is if I still want to play the game to begin with.

Wine 2.3 released with more Direct3D command stream and Shader Model 5 work

But my PC can't keep up with it, so performance is bad.
I hit around 30% swap, maybe more.
Update: Processor is around 60-70% usage, video card is around 30-40%. So I guess swap does slow down the performance alot. Have to upgrade.

Quoting: ShmerlWaiting to test TW3 in Wine staging, once patches will catch up. Guillaume Charifi from Wine developers claims, that he tested tesselation shaders implementation, and got such results:Just retested witcher 3 with latest git (wine 2.3) + memory patch and it does render better (not as good though, staging we need).
These patches don't seem to be public though.

Quoting: ellie_feralWitcher 3?Quoting: hardpenguinTo clarify, we haven't announced what our first Vulkan game will be, nor a timescale of spring. We're aiming to get a Vulkan game out in the first half of this year.Quoting: lejimsterThey already confirmed last year that Deus Ex MD will be their first Vulkan title (that they will add Vulkan support for the game in Spring 2017).Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiT@Feral: Will it be vulkan? Are there any vulkan ports to be announcet right now? :)I asked on Facebook. They said its opengl. Vulkan is coming later in the year, it wasn't clear if they are planning Vulkan for an unreleased game or for titles like Hitman and Dues Ex that have a DX12 back end already.
If you got Vulkan tangled up with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, that's because we talked about Vulkan during a Deus Ex: Mankind Divided live stream. Which was nice and confusing, woo.
