Total War ports from Feral Interactive doesn't contain that. Only Total War Attila on Linux have that , which was a port done in-house by Creative Assembly.

Also , GOG games are have that too.

Good to know. Are you basing that on first hand knowledge? (do you own the game fe).

I'm quite surprised Valve hasn't made any statement about this. They could for example check any releases for those files though I'd imagine it would raise questions about other titles that use something else. Sayyy.. valves own crashreporter. Guess policing porn means more LUL.
I have Medieval 2 and Shogun 2 installed right now and there is no Redshell. Also some user from Reddit ( whom have all Feral Total War ports , except Thrones of Brittania ) confirmed that Feral Ports don't have this.

Surviving Mars

Linux is user-friendly. It's just picky about who its friends are.

You might want to read the quoted text again, he clearly said the majority of the work is already done. Also, a game engine not officially having full Linux support, doesn't mean a developer can't add it in. Look at Unreal Engine 3, we have games using that on Linux, it has never supported Linux.

Plus, it wouldn't even be the first cryengine game on Linux.
Tell me five title runs on Linux via CryEngine

Quoting: ShmerlCDPR have a strong stance on being DRM-free, and so far they are not changing it, so for CP2077 it is expected. I'm more interested in what happened to their Linux plans. They messed up TW3 for Linux plans and never talked publicly about what it means for future games.
That silence means NO.

Beep boop the Feral Interactive port radar has a UFO sighting for a new Linux port

Quoting: MayeulCHow about Inner Chains? Or maybe even Prey?

Other titles I would find fitting are Deadpool (though that's old) and Dark Souls. Let's bring Doom and Dead Space for good measure :)
Inner Chains didn't sell good even on Windows and devs abandoned the game.

Futuristic thriller 'State of Mind' from Daedalic Entertainment releasing August 16th with Linux support

Quoting: LeopardThis price is crazy high to be honest.
23 quid its not bad, not saying you are of this mindset but there does seem to be this mindset that indies games should be under 15 quid (18usd) that says to be inheritantly people are always expecting less of indie games than they do triple A. I know not every indie game is gold and I am personally tired of the retro pixel art style games and rouge likes but i know i am in a minority but there are some indie gems that are worth the price. Shovel knight for example is the same price when not on offer as this new game and many people didnt bat an eyelid at shovel knights pricing.
Actaully i was not talking about USD dollar price.

State of Mind cost for me: 100 Turkish Lira on Steam. Enhanced Steam shows it is 26.99 dollars.

Thrones of Brittania Total War : 100 Turkish Lira on Steam. Enhanced Steam shows it is 39.99 dollars.

Clearly , Daedalic took a higher exchange value here than SEGA.

Looking at their Steam page I'm a bit worried that they aren't going to test and support AMD GPUs at all though, especially on Linux.
Well , it also shows Nvidia only reqs for Windows and Mac too.

Actually it is really simple : Market domination. It both works for users and devs.
