Quoting: mat650In the specific case they should work harder on promoting the steam machine at ESports events and work closer with device manufacturer to ensure top performance of steering wheels, pedals, VR and so on...

Agree! And any automakers will absolutely happy from free ads from that game, especially if it can get at least 10,000 online users daily.

Quoting: prueba_holaIRacing...Asseto Corsa...Project car..
i don't care which one, but I want 1 sim car racing game Native for linux (actually i play Project car 2 using proton)

IRacing is most logical one for Valve to approach/buy for now.

------[Seperator, New Comment below]------

Most of PC Clients/Console do have their first party IP for racing sim to attract players to their system. For example, like Gran Turismo (PS Store), Forza (MS Store), Need for Speed (EA Origin) and so forth.

Meanwhile, Valve's first party IP made of bunch of first shooter, a MOBA, a pseudo - Battle Royale, an expensive virtual card game and a second-party adventurer clicker which bought out (Firewatch).

Seriously, I don't think Valve can survive if they don't making any first IP games, let alone Half-Life 3. Nowadays, more game clients are trying do a "EGS" timed exclusives. Even Kongregate, a flash game websites, also already secures 4 timed exclusives games last week. Lowering 70:30 distribution to 75:25 at least also helps too. It's time Valve to act, now!

If any Valve employees read this, here's my suggestion:

Please buy iRacing and make it as your own IP Valve.
or
Make your own F2P racing sim with offline capabilities

Why? I'm not totally making any speculation here. But my heart tells me probably F1 2019 may coming to EGS exclusively. Let's be honest, EGS doesn't have so-called proper racing games. So, if Valve secured iRacing (not forget, port it to Linux), the future of Steam (read : money) maybe secured and Valve can continue to be lazy some more after that. :D

More games on Godot, the better for gamers in general.

We need competition on game engines and breaking monopoly from an engine maker to avoiding them leveraging their engine to their uncompetitive game store.

Yes, I mean it. No tongue-in-cheek talking here.

EDIT: Too early pressing send.

I'm kinda shock that Japanese Linux gamer(s) exists. Unlike China, Japan AFAIK is iron-clad Windows territory.

Probably it's time for GoL profile to have country/continent options.. Just a suggestion.

Quoting: DenaeHi guys,

Suggestion...

- I wish HexDSL's "The Council of Linux Gamers" will resume in this kind of podcast format here. Not fan of Youtube forcing play in HD nowadays.

- If website's bandwidth hosting is a concern, posted it on soundcloud or vocaroo. It also may "wider-ing" the audience.

- Interview podcasting.

p/s: Is HexDSL have account here?

EDIT:
"Vocaroo" not "vocaloid"
"may" not "amy"

Thank you @Purple Library Guy.. You explained almost everything what's in my mind.

Generally I avoid (or self-banning) myself from reading anything about Linux on mainstream media. I always read on Linux/Foss news website only or at least impartial or not too bias. But, as Liam quoting it. OK I gave a chance.....
....and regret it.

I dislike name-calling here, but you are totally not "impartial" if you're mainstream media people writing "impartial article" and then defending the "toxic" on your personal social media.
No, not you Liam... Everyone here love you! :D

Still, any publisity is good publisity. Probably someone who read the article may wanted challenge themselves and try Linux and then loving it and then adopt it... Who knows?

Let's take it as a grain of salt... Positive salt..

Never use so no lost. We got iflix, viu, netflix and many *flixes.
Me? I mostly watching local vlogger on Youtube and for movies, I bought legal bluray/DVD. Nowadays, physical movies are reasonably cheap than 5-10 years ago.

So Valve... 1, 2 and then what number after that?

First, I've never using/running any Linux PC with Nvidia cards inside. Almost exclusively AMD/ATi, sometimes Intel HD on my i5 or formerly VIA onboard graphic from my old pc. This is my disclaimer...

Definitely I buy Intel GPU if it's CHEAPER than AMD! For low to mid-end GPU, AMD is king as it always much cheaper (and sometimes better) than Nvidia for almost same specs, except last year when Crypto-craziness..

Also if it's as same price or cheaper than AMD, probably a great news for our *BSD friend too as another great alternative to Nvidia. Historically AMD never play nice on *BSD but I didn't following *BSD news/update since 2016, so I don't know how current situation on Graphic drivers on *BSD.
