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

Maybe some console games (neither on pc nor exclusives) ported to Vukan? For example, and what I wish: Red Dead Redemption!

Quoting: lucifertdark

Quoting: BladeforceStarcraft, DIablo 1 and 2, dungeon keeper 2. Nothing new interests me. it's all just eye candy

for Diablo look at Victor Vran & for Dungeon Keeper check out Dungeons 2 & War for the Overworld.

I wish there was more than just Victor Vran and Torchlight 2 for the Diablo-like experience. I find Victor himself way too cookie-cutter of a character to be stuck behind for a whole game, even though the mechanics can be fun.

Are you serious?

About as serious as everyone else asking for Witcher 3 & Skyrim. ;) I know it ain't gonna happen.

Can't see why not its owned by Gearbox, gearbox is a 2k company which have proven to be linux friendly you would need a lot of people to ask for it though so yeah unlikely from that point of view

You really want a game that took 10 years to develop & was universally panned when it did finally got released?

me personally no but someone does i bought it on 360 when it a week after it came out for 6.99 new and sealed from game here in the uk. It was shite

World of Warcraft
Diablo 3
Starcraft 2
The Elder Scrolls Online
Skyrim
Fallout 4

Then some Ubisoft junk because many people want that, throw in some EA cashgrab stuff aswell :)

but this will never happen ;)

Just port AAA titles.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80

Quoting: UnshraFor me, it's the very improbable three Skyrim, Witcher 3 and Doom.

Out of all of those Witcher 3 is way way more likely

I think it's more likely for bethesda to make a deal with feral than with cd projekt red...

Really you think the guys that said we tried linux there is no market there are more likely than CD projekt red who publish linux games and actually promised witcher 3 at one point. Now studios changing their minds on port is nothing new to linux, barring a sudden switch to vulkan from the custom engine i admit its not likely but its at least more likely than Bethesda at least with Bethesda current board.

Lol love the way you don't put Blizzard in the cash crab club when they are arguably worse than EA especially there parent group Activision.

I never said they weren't ;) I only said they should also add some EA cashgrab ;)

QuoteSo far it seems Doom, Bioshock and The Witcher 3 are popular choices.

I would appreciate if we would not talk all the time about games that are out of the question or simply do not make sense. Doom, for example, runs under Wine better than any Feral port. Anyone who wants it has already bought it. Feral would not make money and Linux as a gaming platform would not be more attractive either.

The game that is most lacking is GTA V. Countless people do not switch to Linux because of GTA.

Personally I would like Elite: Dangerous for Linux. But actually not as a Port but directly from Frontier. So I bought a PlayStation 4 for the time being.

The problem with porting games to Linux, is getting the backing from the original publishers.
Here is my list of day dream games that I wish and no doubt a lot of other people do? Would like to see come to Linux. I unfortunately do not own a touch screen device, so am not a member of Twitter, so let's hope to God that Feral Interactive read our lists.

1 Metal Gear Solid (Twin Snakes) Nintendo Game Cube version.
2 All the G. T. A games
3 All the Jak & Daxter games (Probably not as never has Naughty Dog published to PC or at least I don't think so.)
4 All the Ratchet & Clank games.
5 The Getaway 1 & 2 (Yes they're old but when I played them on my Playstation 2 they were stunning. Fully mapped streets of London and a cracking plot to boot.)
6 (We Can Dream) Nintendo's versions of Resident Evil, or the Windows version remastered HD version of Nintendo Game Cube Capcom's remake of such a brilliant scary, hammed acting B movie game. Plus all the rest of the Resident Evil games, as we don't have very many Zombie games on Linux.
7 Whether or not the rumors are true about Feral bringing Rise of the Tomb Raider to Linux I wish it so much, so this is at number 7.
8 Again they are old but brilliant, as I don't care what a game looks like, it is the playability that counts and these games still hold true today, Medal Of Honor the very first one on the Play-Station one and all the others, that were released on PS2.
9 Golf games are good, but the Windows version of this next game was rubbish, compared to the PS2's version and I know it won't happen anyway but here goes it is Tiger Woods 2004, the PS2 version, as the PC version was too tricky to get to grips with.
10 In at ten, although these games are pretty old now, the game play was far superior for it's time and the animations were fantastic, did I mention the atmosphere? Well if I didn't then on the edge of your seat you'd be, God Of War series from PS2 days, has to be in this list as I still have not completed them yet. I was debating where abouts to put them in the list, but as they say leave the best till last.

If Feral were to bring any of these games to Linux, that we have listed and if anyone already owns them on another platform, then re-buy them or donate to Feral Interactive and every other game porter to Linux. The amount of hard work and dedication these porters do is truly amazing and not to mention the fantastic programmers out there that made these wonderful individual, Linux OSes for us to play our games on. Sorry speech over.
