Rich Geldreich On The State Of Linux Gaming, And It's Not Good

Emphasis mine, and I don't agree with him on this. Obviously neither he, nor I have any proof either way that they are/aren't doing their best to optimise, but Aspyr & Feral making a living out of porting games to OpenGL, so why wouldn't they be trying to fix performance issues?
Aspyr is great and I love the job they've done but Feral is not good at all.

Quoting: CheesenessPerhaps if enough users step forward to calmly and politely say that they are disappointed that there isn't a 32 bit version, that might show enough demand to influence things. As it stands though, claiming that Feral have lied, that they have done poor work, and attacking their employees directly doesn't do anything but make you seem like the sort of customer that any developer would be glad to not have.
But they are just a devs! They have to do what we tell them to do.

Quoting: drmothThat's ok Astro, you can go back to playing TuxRacer. XCOM works great for me.
I think there must be a misunderstanding. A lot of companies port games to linux and these games work fine. At least most of them. But what about XCOM, the best way is to buy a windows version and play the game on wine.
BTW, TuxRacer is a great game. I still enjoy playing TuxRacer.

The Last Tinker: City of Colors is something incredibly amazing and infinitely charming. It's not even 5/5, it's 100/100. Probably it's the best game I've ever played in my entire life.

Among The Sleep Still Unplayable For A Lot Of Linux Users

Windows is mainstream. But linux guys may use wine or just install winndows to play their favourite game. And maybe one day devs fix their game. I think that's not a big deal to wait a month or two or even one year.
