Talking point: Leaving user reviews for Linux games can really help a developer

Yes, good point. Leaving reviews and thanking for the Linux release will give them more appreciation of the Linux user base.

Do you mean to leave reviews for Linux releases, or to leave them for Windows only releases and comment about interest in Linux versions? I suppose for the later case you assume playing it in Wine?

Convincing developers who aren't yet releasing for Linux can be tricky.

Do they plan GOG release?

Nice to see a DRM-free release in Humble Store for a change. Most of their releases aren't DRM-free anymore.

Quoting: Duke TakeshiI heard this is a problem linked to LLVM version 6? Do you think it will be fixed with LLVM 7 releasing in September?
There are various problems in llvm 6 backend for amdgpu, but it's not related to stream output. llvm 7 will fix GPU hangs.

For stream output, Vulkan itself needs more features. But there might be a workaround to render better than distorted or invisible monsters even if some elements like decals will remain missing.

Looks impressive at the first glance. I'll give it a try.

Quoting: YoRHa-2BNnot to mention that RoTTR is completely unplayable on dxvk because it has insane amounts of shader compiler stutter.
Is the only way to reduce it, to make shader compiler itself much faster / parallelized?

I'm also skeptical about C# usage for VR. Realtime requirements and garbage collector don't mix well.

Quoting: DuncI'm seriously tempted to break my “five year rule” and buy that now. My specs aren't quite up to yours, but I could live with 30fps.
Wait a bit more, until there is a workaround for missing stream output. I haven't played the game through yet because of it.
