I think it was fairly obvious that I was going to praise this port to high heavens. Feral's port is simply awesome.
I have to agree here. 7 hours of gameplay without me even realising so far, it's that good. My only question is why they only port it up to DirectX9 functionality (Aspyr did the same). Is it currently not possible to fully implement DX11 features in OpenGL smoothly? Or are we restricted to what Mac gamers are stuck at with their OpenGL implemention? (or are the DX11 features in Xcom and Civ5 so little they are unnoticeable?)
I think thy have to find the perfect balace between worktime and quality for their work. So they have to use the safest opengl implemtation for the most users on both systems.
So I think at the moment it is the easiest way to use OpenGL 3.1 Features as maximum. Backportet OpenGL 4 Features that are realised with Extension from NVidia or AMD in their drivers are not save to use.
Simple say. The Port can only use Features that are supported by NVidia, AMD and Intel and aviable on Linux and Mac down to the lowest supported GPU.
Do extra features for better cards is more work, needs more time and at the end, costs more money.

It is a very good port. I wish every port would have this quality.
