Not to be confused with Feral's teaser from April, this one only has a Linux icon and it's apparently due 'Very Soon'.
On their teaser radar is the above image with the wording "Spice Clove", which as usual I have no idea. I do love a good guessing game though and Feral do usually port good games.
The fact that it only has a Linux icon, could mean it's a game they have previously ported to Mac or something entirely new.

Please, not another strategy game. We have more than plenty of strategy games on Linux.

Doom , Skyrim and Witcher 3 titles are so desperately needed. Well, they're more mainstreamed and well known titles. Shogun and DoW are not so helpful to Linux.
Have you bothered checking Feral's contracted publishers recently or ever? Are you aware that Bethesda does not work with third party porters? Did you you notice CD Project Red's games are Direct3D exclusives to the point only eON wrapped got around with it, once. You are claiming that Linux needs fast paced shooters; did you know that before 2012, majority of known Linux supported titles are id Software and Epic's fast paced shooters?
Wishing amazing titles like Doom (2016) is okay but bringing that one and Skyrim in every Feral news is pointless. So, I suggest you to stop expecting Linux ports of Bethesda titles; instead asking titles of Sega, Square Enix, Codemasters, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, 2K Games would be more realistic.

You can never have too many Total War games on Linux! I still remember how excited I was when Empire:TW was ported - how quickly it becomes the norm.
I hope they also port Fall of the Samurai?

Have you tried to understand my statement ; these are most needed genres on Linux and these games are succesful.
Feral can keep that way , doing ports of same genres over and over again. I was buying nearly every Feral title to just for support , even that i don't have time to play them. I think that is enough. I can live without some strategy games , i won't buy until something fresh comes out to the Linux side.

Looking briefly on steam (if I counted correctly) I see that Feral ported Life is Strange, three racing titles, six action titles and eleven strategy ones.
They do like strategy titles it seems.
Not crazy about them myself though, I bought five of those strategy games from Feral (although I'll never play them) only to support them, but not happy with the above numbers.

A disturbing thought: Maybe one day Feral really will port Skyrim, and then where would I be?

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

The only fast paced FPS we can possibly get on Linux in coming years is UT4. Even on Windows, the genre has been pretty much abandoned for some time. I feel sad about it but that's the situation nevertheless...

I'm just waiting for someone to provide an interesting take on Spice Clove. No idea how to match that to Shogun 2.

FINALLY! I've been waiting for Shogun 2 for ages. My Housemate will be heaps excited by this. He was never able to get the Windows version of it to run properly. I don't mind Feral porting over the entire Total War Series. It's nice to have an entire franchise come over. i'd like to see the same done with Company of Heroes, Homeworld, and Dawn of War. I think when it comes to game ports we need to be realistic and start supporting the engine remake projects a lot more. OpenMW needs to get forked and expanded to add Oblivion/Skyrim support. There should be more focus on engineering better modding tools for open source engines, and getting more games supported in those open source engines. E.g if there's little difference between most sprite based isometric RTS games. Maybe we should focus on making a universal engine for Isometric Sprite based RTS games. The same for 3D RTS games etc. I keep thinking of LibRealSpace which is on github. This one engine could bring Strike Commander, Wing Commander Armada, Wing Commander 3, Wing Commander 4, and Privateer 2 to Linux. That's five games where most of the formats/work would overlap. Not to mention the menu/animation code could be spun off to make a Wing Commander Prophecy, and Privateer 1 Linux native port.

Sigh... be sensible, you casuals. Your silliness tickles my innards. Alas, Linux gaming is now infested by silly people. Here are some guesses based on my immaculate knowledge of the industry:
Final Fantasy 18
Uncharted 5
Halo 8
Super Mario Galaxy 4
It has to be one of these, hurr durr durr.

I'm just waiting for someone to provide an interesting take on Spice Clove. No idea how to match that to Shogun 2.You wanted Cloves? Cloves you get, the Spice Cloves comes from Indonesia, add that to Samurai & you get Tekken Tag Tournament 2, I know tenuous at best but the link is there. ;)
