What games do you want ported to Linux? Feral Interactive want to know again

Obviously Skyrim, but I'd like to actually see a Linux client for Wildstar since someone mentioned PvE MMOs. Maybe one (or more) of the Tales Of games or the remakes of the Final Fantasy series like FF X and VII. Some of the Batman games and maybe the first two Bioshocks would be great. I hear the Dragon Age games are good, so they'd be a fine addition to the Linux catalogue.

Hey, and I'll be a heretic here and suggest No Man's Sky.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
Agents of Mayhem
Shadow Warrior 2
Witcher 3
Doom

Add Skyrim and Doom to your I have a dream cat i think given Bethesda no way fuck you attitude to Linux. Dirt 4 will be VP as have the last couple of dirt games and it appears VP are working on Arma 3 for linux currently at least according to their website.

Skyrim and Doom are Really easy ports for Linux

Indeed, is more unlikely Skyrim for Switch than Skirim for Linux. but here we are.

Skyrim and Doom for Linux is matter of time. Bateshda's only problem is the old manager/CEO who does not know about tecnology, much less about the future of video games.

In a few months or years, when the Debug of Life cuts off the heads of Bathesda executives, we'll have our Skyrim and DOOM on Linux.

I just noticed an interesting development. On the Feral radar "West Norwood" and "XCOM2 War of the Chosen" split into two dots. But "West Norwood" Linux was left in "Soon" while the rest, including the mac version, moved into "very soon".

Perhaps if Feral went to Bethesda and said, 'hey we will make the Skyrim/Fallout ports happen with no cost to you, and you'd still make %% profit from sales you would otherwise not have got', THEN maybe Bethesda would listen, but if Feral go asking for money to make a port then they will get a literal sword in the gut from certain developers.

I keep forgetting I have an account now, so I can join in the fun...

Witcher 3
Fallout 4
Elite: Dangerous (Seriously, the original has been unshakeable from the top of my “greatest games of all time” list since 1984. I am absolutely front and centre of their core market. But... no Linux version, no sale.)
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Dishonored 2
Assetto Corsa

GTAV and Skyrim would be nice if they helped people switch to Linux, but I've already played them to death on the Xbox 360. (Hmm. Modding, though... )

Lawbreakers
Prey
DOOM 2016
Dishonored 1,2
Blizzard games

There's quite a few issues for Feral and monetizing a game port. One issue is the fact that there's a lot of Linux games out there already. So, whatever money Feral make is limited by that fact. Linux gamers spread their (finite) cash around what is available ( "lots" ).

Certainly, in my case, I pick up games that appeal to me that are released on Linux. But if a particular one that I like is not available (e.g. Witcher 3), then I spend my cash on another (Linux) game instead. There is so much out on Linux to keep me entertained. It'll be years before I finish playing what is in my collection already, not to mention titles which are highly replayable.

I've dropped over 150 hours into FTL and 280 hours into 7 Days To Die for instance, heh. Mad Max ~ about 80 hours, Dying Light ~ about 130 hours, Serious Sam 3 ~ about 70 hours.

g000h wish I was you, being able to be entertained so easily for endless hours would be amazing, sadly most games tend to be quite MEH after a few hours at a time. I only keep playing Skyrim because of mods, but have only beat the game once in a rush.

The most time I have probably spend on a game that is not Multiplayer would be Witcher3, it just takes quite a while to finish the base game (have not even got into DLC because low FPS at 4k, waiting on upgrade).

FF7 Remake, and other Square Enix titles since they are already working together. Some more of the back catalog would be nice. That seems like the most realistic request.

Things like Fallout and Elder Scrolls seem unrealistic, since that would mean having some sort of deal with Bethesda. In business terms though, It makes sense to do more deals with developers and publishers like they have going with Square. Who knows, some day Feral could strike deals with Rockstar or Bethesda to port future titles to Linux and OSX.

To be honest, I don't get why more companies don't do those kinds of deals. It means their products get onto more platforms, and Feral takes care of the work.

I think many companies are just afraid of getting a bad reputation if the port gets released wonky like many often do. But for the most part issues get resolved in due time, helps allot that MESA is actually making progress also.

Monster Hunter World (CAPCOM, 2018)

Skyrim
Tekken 7
Doom
Witcher 3
Bayonetta

Quoting: rkfgI'd like them to port other parts of the already ported games:
Life is Strange ⇒ Life is Strange: Before the Storm
Tomb Raider ⇒ Rise of the Tomb Raider
Bioshock Infinite ⇒ Bioshock 1/2

All of those games are or hopefully will be great. If not those then DOOM 2016 would do, especially because it looks like a potential low effort / high quality port without performance hits. Vulkan rules!

If I remember well, Feral didn't port Bioshock Infinite to Linux, I think it was VP... So VP must be asked port the remastered Bioshock's to Linux.

Dark Souls 3, Tomb Raider: Rise of the Tomb Raider, Witcher 3, Darksiders ... #THEREQUESTINATOR :P And a lot more that I left! Doom, Wolfenstein !!!
