Feral Interactive are wanting to know what games you want ported to Linux, hopefully taking your requests into real consideration.
See their Tweet below:

They also asked on Facebook and Reddit.
It will be interesting to see if any of the user requests actually get ported. I am always sceptical of things like this, as it's essentially a hype machine for Feral and it doesn't necessarily mean anything will get ported as a result of requests there. Just keep that in mind when wildly requesting ports. Even so, it's a bit of fun and I am excited to see what Feral bring out over the rest of the year and beyond.
I've seen people constantly ask Feral about porting BioShock Remastered to Linux previous to this, but each request is met with the usual "we have nothing to share" type of reply. Considering it's a popular pick, I hope they look into that one. I would certainly appreciate BioShock Remastered on Linux!
So far it seems Doom, Bioshock and The Witcher 3 are popular choices.
What would you like to see?
Would have written this up four hours ago when I replied to their tweet, but updating some of the site code seemed to make time vanish!
NieR:Automata
Witcher 3
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Street Fighter 5
Mass Effect Trilogy + Andromeda
Dragon Age trilogy
Dark Souls trilogy
Elite Dangerous
No Man's Sky
Fallout 3-4 or New Vegas
Bayonetta
Metal Gear Rising:Revengeance
Metal Gear Solid 5
+1 Red Dead Redemption :D
Assassin's Creed Black Flag
DOOM 2016
Dragon Age (any of them)
Neverwinter Nights 2
Elite Dangerous
Path of Exile
GTA 6
Witcher 3
Cyberpunk 2077 (get in touch with CDPR early on in the development cycle, so porting would be easier)
Life is Strange: Before the Storm (releasing on August 31st, that is two weeks away. I imagine they'll be using Unreal Engine 3, so you can use your porting experience from Life is Strange for a quick and easy port)
GWENT
Spintires (works flawlessly under wine, but due to its wealth of mods and user-made maps, it has a limitless replayability value)
South Park: Fractured but Whole
I just finished Life is Strange and I fell in love with the story and character-driven narrative. The sad truth is that I would have panned this incredible gem of a game if Feral had not ported it. So I believe that Feral is capable of picking good, indi, lesser known games.
Thanks for asking for our input.

I'd like them to port some of the professional software that's popular in my industry and costing me jobs because I can't use it on Linux
