I am definitely interested in this one. More JRPGs and SRPGs on Linux is a very good thing. :D

I have two. Doom 2016 and The Witcher 3. I would be a happy, happy man if those two titles were to be ported.

It's been some months. I wonder if the plan to port to Linux is still in the cards? I will try and ask.

Quoting: tmtvlAnd I could keep going, too. The Warhammer titles for example. Or Stellaris. Major releases, high quality productions. When I think about it, 2015 wasn't that much better. So to be unable to list any other titles than Tyranny as candidates for a GOTY this year... Well, yeah. That is kinda odd.

I'm with Beamboom. It was a better year than 2015, if only by a bit, and a great year for Linux gaming regardless. Gradual improvement is still improvement my friends. I too think it's odd that anyone would say that Tyranny, a game that has only been out for like two weeks, though certainly a great game, is the only good Linux title released this year. What an insult to the studios who worked hard to port their titles to or include a Linux build of their games for the Linux gaming community to enjoy.

This is not the way to encourage other developers to include Linux as a platform for their games. They see such cherry-picking, such vitriol thrown at already existing Linux titles by ungrateful/entitled gamers on a platform that barely holds on to 2% of the desktop market and I am sure some of them say "Screw that, I'm not even going there" and release on Win/Mac only, ignore the Linux build request threads on steam and call it a day.

We should try to be a bit more optimistic imo, look how far we've come. If you'd have told me I'd be playing AAA games in the near future with Steam on my Linux box 5-6 years ago, I would have paused the PS3 game I was playing, called the authorities, and I would have had you committed.

Things will only get better from here. Here's to the future.

@tmtvl

Your gaming standards bro. They are quite quite lofty indeed. Sheesh. :p

I for one like it. But I'm a sucker for stuff like this.

Looks like I know what I am doing with some of my tax money in 2017! Zen build here I come. :)

This is good news. :) Hopefully this trend continues. I look forward to the benefits that come along with greater marketshare if it does.
