Here's a crazy idea that might be useful to a lot of people: what if, like our system specs, we could choose linux wishlist titles, maybe from a preexisting list to keep it consistent, and keep it attached to our profiles? It'd be really interesting to see the numbers, and what games get voted top (apart from the usual doom 2016 and witcher and skyrim). Kind of a live perma-poll...

I also can't wait to read why it's a stupid and terrible idea. This oughtta be interesting.

No, for this:

We're not the borg or some kind of hivemind, so that must not be what you mean. I'm not making excuses for foolish people, but that's why I won't make any excuses for CDPR. I don't control and I don't WANT to control, directly or via some kind of censorship or social bullying, anything some other "member" of the "linux community" says or does; and I also utterly absolve myself from any responsibility for what they say or do, therefore. If they don't want me to buy their game because of something some kids said, that's their decision, but petty doesn't begin to describe the offensive excuse given by that guy.

I'm sure creators of very cared about games have seen worse, and maybe whomever did that No Man's Sky deserves worse, but I've never heard such a childish, level-stooping and just plain absurd response from any dev or publisher. Ban the haters, prosecute the lawbreakers, and man the eff up. The closest thing to an apology I can think of that would be reasonable to expect from those of us who would like a port and aren't responsible for threats, etc, would be along the lines of "Hey, some folks are real jerks, huh? Well I'm sorry you had a rough month, but let's not fall into generalization. I have this money here..." /endrant

Quoting: GuestWorst game name so far this year?

haha, seems to be a thing with f2p games. terrible names. but the odds that this will have a decent business model are kinda low. i'll still give it a try, obviously, when it comes out.

Indeed rare that I get serious camping issues, and one has to draw a line on the map somewhere.

On my fx-6200 + rx 480 + radv, vulkan doesn't run the same peak fps, but it still manages to be a bit more stable. With opengl I have this recurring scope glitch (image freezes) that never happens in vulkan. Vulkan gets a far more stable frame rate during action, and less cpu usage, which matters a ton to me since I don't have any cpu to spare. I hope they keep workin' at that renderer because if it ever gets high frame rates on top of the efficiency I'll be ecstatic. In fact I bought at full price to support the folks

looks like they didnt got the message, people are replying here instead of on twitter...

I know FAR more people who refuse to use twitter than people who do. Also more and more people I know are dropping their facebook accounts. All ages, all relations.

I won't touch either. I suspect the feral folks understand such things better than most.

Also forgot the LEGO series. My sisters are no longer children, but one has child, and they both use and love linux. They recently talked to me about getting the old LSW2 to work, but had issues with DRM and wine, and so we couldn't even see if the performance was decent enough. I think some proper ports would sell well.

Quoting: TcheyI don't want many non-Linux games actually. Most of the very hyped games don't really hype me (like the Witcher).

I'd like maybe

Warframe
Grim Dawn
The Elder Scroll Online

1+ grim dawn, great ARPG
