Games broken on Mesa

A list of games currently broken in some way on Mesa drivers.

Please read before editing!

• Please make sure you list the Mesa version used.
• Mesa git, please only put the date and in DD/MM/YY format. This will make it easier to sort the table. (if there's a better way, feel free to discuss it)
• If you don't know the Mesa version, please do not post it as it's not helpful to anyone.
• If the game is broken on multiple versions of Mesa, please use a new entry for each one. Only add data to an existing one if you're using the exact same Mesa version.
• Use hyperlinking instead of pasting URLs, it keeps the table neat.
• Only list actual broken games, a game that takes a while start is not broken, for example (that's needing optimization, which is a different topic).
• If you can't find corresponding bug in the Mesa bug tracker, please help developers and yourself, and file one.
• For the list of recently fixed games and issues, see Games with recent fixes in Mesa. Transfer fixed games and issues to that list please.

Native Games, Requires Compatibility Context

Game	Bug Link	Notes and workarounds	GPU / Mesa driver	Mesa / LLVM Version
Dear Esther		native port from Humble Bundle
Dead Island Definitive Edition		With OpenGL core profile 4.5 and OpenGL version string 3.0, game opens a pop up saying OpenGL has to be 3.3 at least and it detects 3.0. Launching with MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5 MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=450 fixes it. I tried with override 3.3 and 330 but it didn't work.	HD Graphics 630 (Kaby Lake GT2)	Mesa 17.2.3

Non-native (Wine)
