Quoting: abelthorneYep , with his logic id Software should be complaining about all FPS games being copycat of Wolfenstein or Doom.Quoting: LeopardWhat about H1Z1 King of the kill , Arma 3 Battle Royale mode?Well, Brendan Greene (PlayerUnknown) was also the creator of Battle Royale mods for DayZ and Arma 2 (then ported to Arma 3). H1Z1 King of the Kill came out after his mods became popular. So, one could argue that he created that kind of gameplay, PUBG being the professional version of his previous attempts as a modder.
They were standing there long before of PUBG.
But in any case, a game concept can't be copyrighted. He can complain as much as he wants on this, he's basically yelling at clouds. (*insert Simpsons reference here*)

That's right, not the assets or the art or the music .. the actual idea. Because last man standing was his idea he invented battle royale :huh:
And yes he is referring to being able to copyright a derivative work. I.e if the very first FPS idea (lets say wolfenstien 3D) was copyrighted we would only ever of had ONE FPS ever due to that copyright. That's why movies and music allow for derivative works to be allowed.
Sold 25 million copies. I guess greed knows no bounds.

Quoting: lucifertdarkSo does anyone know which games take advantage of this new feature? or is this more of a case of all games will use it no matter what?For my case , it is mostly related to Cs:Go.

Quoting: LakortaThanks for the answer.Quoting: LeopardIs this shader thing exclusive to Amd and Mesa or it also includes Nvidia and blob too?I have files in the shaderchache in my steamapps folder so it should work for Nvidia blob too.

So when he was saying " I don't need money , i just want to help games come to Linux " , he was obviously talking about small games ; alas people just kept dreaming 3d games and slightly bigger games than End Is Nigh.

Quoting: MohandevirIt's probably been proposed many times already, but why not contact Icculus, Timothee Besset or other porters to help them, if they are unable to do it themselves?!Icculus is ( no offense , he is a great guy ) just helping small indie 2d games now.

Steam now has a form of platform-specific wishlisting, to help developers see demand

Quoting: Smoke39I'm not sure how useful this will be. It doesn't count people who dual boot but prefer Linux, and people who don't know about this feature may not bother wishlisting games they can't play (personally, I use the "follow" function for games I'm hoping get ported, and only wishlist them if and when they do). I kinda feel like this could actually make demand look even smaller than it actually is.Agreed , since i was only wishlisting games with an actual port but if this can help a bit ; why not?
