Nier: Automata makes more sense to me:

The Reddit poster forgot Warhammer 40k, published by THQ, but no exception to the rule. Feral porting games from big publishers. Everything else would make little sense economically, I think. Nier: Automata is another blockbuster. Even with only 0,8% of the market you can make a lot of extra sells. They have sold already one million copies. But I'm just guessing. This radar is a fun thing. :)

Today Feral streamed F1 2016 for Mac:

It feels a little bit sad but I don't see much difference between 2015 and 2016. Mac users haven't got 2015, so they are maybe a lot Mac user who will buy.

To be honest, I do not know if I would have bought it now. I just paid 50 Euros for DiRT Rally. F1 is reissued every year. There will be a version for Linux again next year or later.

I do not understand why 2015 has received such crushing criticism. The races are really fun. I see hardly any difference between 2015 and the actual version.

Happy to have payed full price for this game. :)

This are amazing news, Liam. I just started the game. Can not wait to play it again. Unfortunately, just no time. But that will be streamed next. :)

The performance of DiRT Rally was already impressive. Feral is getting better and better.

I think it absolutely great that Feral is also concerned about already published games. They already fixed problems with Shadow of Mordor. But this is now again a completely different category. Vulkan support for Mad Max. Who would have thought of that? :)

What can I say, it is a pleasure to play with Feral. :)

That's very cool. But I like to finish the main game first. :)

A lot of work for Feral, as some games now get regular contend updates. I played Hitman for 47h now. :)

Quoting: Mountain Man

Quoting: KeyrockGotta love SCS, they keep tinkering with their games for years after release.

Yet Steam Controller support for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is still DOA in Linux.

Yes, waiting for this too. Bur didn't test it again.

This is how Android has grown. The companies want to sell their hardware and the customers want to have the choice.

Quoting: GrazenSo what's gonna change to make SteamOS a viable platform?

I think it is more interesting for the market in the long term, because Microsoft is out then. In the moment the manufacturers are dependent on Valve and Microsoft. They also have to pay license fees to Microsoft. But I do not know, maybe they do not care.

But I think that SteamOS will push the others in the long run down. Just as Android has done it with iOS.

What is the actual version of the steam controller? My version is 1001.

My thoughts: Valve takes good money for the controller and everything else. I do not think they risk the farm. Thus steam machines can grow slowly or not. If Steam Machines would spread, it would be great for us, of course. Something must come as well.

They should improve the quality of the controller in my opinion. Hardware and Software. Also they need a collection of really well-supported games. Everything has to grow. But everything is on a good path. I think that on the basis of Steam Machines in a few years a Vive VR box for under 1000 dollars is possible. The Vive must also be significantly cheaper for this. With the many games that will be available before then, Steam Machines will be a strong offer.

Quoting: TobiSGDIf it is good enough for streaming it is good enough for playing. They should just release it instead of baiting people that are waiting eagerly for the port.

Release dates are typically carved in stone and can not be moved easily. What do you think how many people are involved in this? This is not just Feral.

I enjoy Feral's streams and just like to watch them. It's cool to have a stream just one day before the release. This has become a nice tradition between Feral an the community.

Of course they could do without it, but who would benefit? The game would not appear a second earlier without the stream.

So cool to have this on Linux. I hope the Steam Controller will be supported.
