I bought Stellaris: Apolcalypse and then went to waste 90+ hours on this last week! I love it management now is a lot better than before where I don't need to micro-manage every small detail.
The RPG 'Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues' is to launch next month

Still no maps on Linux? I asked on their Steam discussion board and was told it's "coming". Last time I played it was a bit clunky. Playing Neverwinter Online now via Wine until PoE2 is out.

Without a SteamOS-based Linux console, the sub 1% statistics aren't going to change. We need a company with huge resources that can actually pursue this and break the duopoly of PS4/XBox. Valve isn't committed to this, it must be someone else.

Quoting: tuubiQuoting: knroGot it yesterday since I used to bike quite a bit when I was in college. It worked flawlessly even on SteamLink. Is this based on UE4? All my UE4 games just display green screen on SteamLink.It runs on Unity.

Hands down Tomb Raider! I bet if Feral opens this up for voting, this would be the #1 choice by some hefty margin! Give us RoTR!

I rolled another character in PoE after finishing Tyranny. Really can't wait for PoE2 enough! NOTHING out there is even close to the quality of those games. Guess I will continue playing PoE until PoE2 is launched eventually.

I registered an account at Hex but it seems I cannot login properly. After I login, if I go anywhere on the page, it seems I am still logged out so can't post on the forum or do anything else!
Anyone else has this issue?

Well, given Linux users are like %0.25 of Steam users, why would they even care? They chose D3D which can target over 90% of the potential users out there.
Turns out Linux market share on Steam did not go back up in December

This isn't going to change anytime soon. Hell, even if PUBG is released on Linux, you won't see a significant difference in the numbers. People will just use whatever everyone else is using: Windows.
The _only_ chance Linux would see any increase is if there is a successful console out there that is based on SteamOS. Just think about it, would Linux be dominating mobile market if it wasn't for Android/Google? No way, it would probably be even less than %0.1 worldwide.
So, just be thankful we have developers who are willing to release games for this sub 1% market. The good news is that many tools now (UE4/Unity5..etc) make it a lot easier for developers to release for Linux, and so no significant downtime is required to support extra platforms as it was before. As this trend continues, along with Vulkan becoming more stream, this should lead to more games getting released on Linux as a by-product of these technologies maturing.
