Looks like Vega + radenosi will be a solid combination, if this will make it in in time.
Why GNU/Linux ports can be less performant, a more in-depth answer

Quite detailed article, thanks for posting @mirv. Are there tools which actually can translate all current HLSL into GLSL or SPIR-V? I thought such tools (at least open ones) aren't complete and are WIP. Example: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glslang/issues/362 [External Link]

Quoting: GuestVulkan has a lot more industry push, has feature-parity with DX12 (and Metal)
Mostly. Vulkan is still catching up on multi-GPU support for example.

Quoting: skinnyrafIs Mad Max on Linux DRM protected though?
If not for DRM, why can't they release it on GOG then?

That's quite a mess of a name. Looks like a clone from Windows version without simplifying it.

If a game ported isn't already on GOG, then you should already know the answer dude. It won't be up to Feral to get it approved onto other stores.
Sure, I'm being only half sarcastic here. WB Interactive who own Mad Max started releasing their games on GOG already, so why not this one as well?

I don't think that is up to Feral. I'd love a DRM free copy of Mad max. if it ever happens I will buy another copy happily.
Yes it is. They can do that... They have the publishing rights of the Linux version... We talked a lot about that topic. :|
They can't. They aren't owners. It's all decided by WB Interactive.

Anyway, it's another title I'll skip. May be WB will wake up in 5 years from now.

'Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope' will support Linux as soon as possible

Why aren't recent Serious Sam games on GOG yet?
HTC Vive VR demo on Linux used Kubuntu at SteamDevDays

I don't think they need to use SteamOS for desktop demo. KDE is just fine for that purpose.
