I would like to see Gwent come to Linux (after all Gwent is a Unity game), but that wouold seem to require Galaxy at the minute.

It would be nice to see the same benchmarks for a system with a less powerful CPU. No offence to Liam here the benchmarks are nice to see but his CPU is a beefy one and thus was probably less affected by the CPU bound issue when using OpenGL than someone using an i5 say, I think that could show even better gains as the benefit will release the GPU more from bottlenecks.

Agree, we definately need any benchmark to support Vulkan as well as OpenGL

I like that there is new DLC, and I may buy it; I do object to the 4.3GB update it decided to give me though, especially on my piddly 5Mbps connection; bang goes any gaming for me tonight :(

Im interested in how Ryzen is going forward, but for the time being my i5 4670K is more than enough to handle modern games especially coupled with my 1070.
However I would like AMD to keep pushing intel because I would hapily buy a future generation AMD CPU when it comes time to upgrade; hell if AMD's GPU's get upto par in performance I would hapily switch to one as well when the time comes.

Editorial: On paying for Linux games when you already have a Windows version

I have no problem with paying again for old games I have leftover from my windows days, though I would prefer its not at original full retail!. Simply put I no longer play them, so without a port I would either never touch them again or resort to playing via WINE.
Its a moot point for new games! As for sales, I have so little free time that by the time i get round to games they are on discount anyway but in and of itself I have no expectation of a a game having to be on Sale for me to buy. in fact I have for a couple of titles actually waited til the sale ended to show my support by purchasing at full retail.

Wine-Staging 2.2 released with CSMT speed optimizations

Its times like these im glad I use Play On Linux to manage WINE, I can quickly test new versions of WINE and revert and keep games at the best version for them :) So my GW2 wine prefix is staying on 2.0-staging for now then.

Quoting: coesetaQuoting: Avehicle7887Compared to Staging-2.0 performance is much worse on Guild Wars 2, there's 7-20 frames fps loss. On the other hand in Crysis Warhead it stayed the same.
Damn I wanted to try it with GW2, it is the only game I still need wine for :/
Did you also try it with 2.1?

I personally like the mix of how tos, community posts, interviews and pure news articles. That said the below is a great solution to those who would like to filter certain content out without being detrimental to those who still enjoy it.
Quoting: liamdaweWhat I will be looking to do is two things:
1) Allow people to filter out tags from their GOL homepage
2) Have a few featured tabs along the top of the latest articles to quickly go to certain tags like HowTo, Interviews and so on.
