It won't change anything, but I suppose if we can get high numbers maybe we will push both sides to at least consider it.

Dying Light adds more free content with the latest update, including a whole new challenge area

Last time I checked they (developers/publishers) get death threats from other OSes too.

Let's not pretend that we do not know why exactly the next game won't be released for Linux.
Money. its-all-about-money.

No amount of cookies or death threats can change the fact.

Doom (2016) could have been on Linux, id Software made a Linux version sound easy to do

I think it's quiet obvious that they (as a company/publisher) are anti-linux.
For what their reasons are, I don't know. But I don't think that it matters, really.

The latest Steam Client update is quite a big one pulling in lots from previous beta versions

Wonder when will we see a x64 client. Valve time at work!

Wine 3.4 released with more Vulkan support

Quoting: ShmerlYou can make the same claim about current closed wrappers from Feral and VP, i.e. they supposedly hurt the market of native games. Yet we see the opposite, major game engines are improving Linux support, and increasing amount of native games are coming out these days.
Interesting! Which ports by Feral are binary wrapped? Asking only for scientific reasons…

Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire delayed until May

Quoting: FeistWell, there is "Atom RPG", which is an early access title that is heavily inspired by Fallout.
As shocking as it might be I have never played Fallout.

On the other hand I have taken a look at my wishlist and noticed Divinity OS EE.
Watched little gameplay on youtube and I must say I kinda like it. So that's my next to-play.

What really bothers me is this 2D style, where you can't rotate, zoom, etc. So never got to playing this game.
Something like NWN/DA is more to my liking. But as far as I'm aware there is none that fits the parameters. Aside from NWN and NWN EE ofcourse.

Life is Strange: Before the Storm is officially coming to Linux, port from Feral Interactive

Will you be grabbing a copy when it releases for Linux?
Nope.

Steam-only. And steam only gives you one option when comes down to x32/x64 bit.
Valve should finally give us x64 support!

GOG are doing an early St. Patrick's Day Sale, a few Linux titles going cheap

Quoting: HendrinMckayI believe he(sic) means it being advertised as coming to Steam Hardware as advertised on Steam's site way back, and then never being released for Linux.
Ah! Now I got it. Well, as it have been said, that were Steam's (Valve's) and CDPR's problems.
Has been said? By who? When?
Guess I have missed this…

To my eyes GOG is CDPR. And CDPR is GOG. So hence my views.
Don't worry, Steam have earned a special treatment too.

Only if there were more worthy games at GOG… and Linux support was a bit more serious.
And above all, the fiasco with Witcher 3 didn't happen.
