Battlechasers was also published by THQ Nordic although developed by Airship Syndicate.
I hope they get Metro Exodus out for Linux too.

If you like your shoot 'em ups, you need to look at PAWARUMI

Crashes for me immediately.
Looks like a Linux beta of Battle Chasers: Nightwar is finally coming (update: it's here)

Waiting is fine as long as eventually, all platforms have the same experience.
Turns out Linux market share on Steam did not go back up in December

Thank God, Fortnite isn't on Steam also. Or you will see us at 0.15%.
What are you playing this weekend?

Quoting: EhvisThis quite clearly demonstrates the pointlessness of these threads. They're always the same numbers and they'll never be enough to justify a port. In this case it is even weirder because the game itself is not selling at all. SteamDB estimates about 2200 copies sold. So if the "140" sales from the thread would be accurate, that'd be 6.3%, which would actually be a very good result. If the more generic 1% would be used, then it is a complete disaster. So this game has a much bigger problem than the potential sales on Linux.Agreed on the problems the game has.

Quoting: skinnyrafImo, if at any resolution, it clocks above 60 frames consistently - (anything from 70 to 90 consistently in all areas), i'd consider it acceptable even if the Windows or other OS versions are clocking 1000 fps.Quoting: [email protected]The gap is abstraction.I am aware of this discussion. It's just that this up to 40% penalty in the review is much higher than expected. It's good that neither dubigrasu nor Phoronix confirm that. 10% gap is great, 15-20% is acceptable, >30% is not acceptable.

There's a whole discussion on the subject at Reddit.
Feral did a good job with what they can physically do imo. Their work is fantastic.
Don't expect performance parity with Windows. That's akin to comparing native performance to emulation (although abstraction isn't exactly emulation).

Quoting: skinnyrafInteresting benchmark from dubigrasu on Youtube, using modest hardware (GTX 780). Overall gap is less than 20%, so less than liamdawe experienced.The gap is abstraction.
It seems that the biggest difference between Windows and Linux exists shortly after the start and then disappears. Loading of textures perhaps?
