Too bad that Feral ports mostly Total War game series, however it means one more native port, so it's better than nothing.
The Steam Hardware Survey for October 2018 shows a small drop for Linux, a look at daily and monthly active users

I had steam survey yesterday (first time since a year+). In october I replaced ssd in my PC, so I think that it may be a reason.
Valve have updated Steam Play with the 3.16-1 beta based on Wine 3.16 and new DXVK

I tested S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky few minutes ago and finally DX10.1 mode works properly.
DXVK 0.71 is out for Vulkan-based D3D11 and D3D10 in Wine, minor reduction in CPU overhead and more

Quoting: iiariAlso, Void Destroyer 2, a space combat sim that was never coming to Linux that I never could get working on Wine, also "just works" on Proton. Very impressive...
I had similar problems with Risen 3 Enhanced Edition. I couldn't run it through vanilla WINE, but with Proton it works flawlessly!
DXVK 0.70 is out with support for Direct3D 10 over Vulkan in Wine

Quoting: Corben
Quoting: nadrolinuxCan you provide a link to this project? I'm looking for something like that.
You can find such a project here: https://github.com/xomachine/SteamForwarder
An older one was SteamBridge.
Beware though, I have never tried this myself, and you might get banned using it.
Thanks a lot! ;)

Quoting: CorbenThere is a github project out there already, that let's you use a Windows game with wine communicating with the Linux Steam client. So SteamWorks etc. is working. Of course not officially supported, but Valve could be working on something similar.
Hi,
Can you provide a link to this project? I'm looking for something like that.
Cheers,
Plague Inc: Evolved has a 'Royal Update' with two new scenarios, it's a pretty fun game

This game is really nice! I play sometimes with my wife in a CO-OP mode :)
DXVK for Vulkan-based D3D11 in Wine version 0.61 is out with improved performance
29 June 2018 at 3:43 pm UTC
Quoting: YoRHa-2BWeird, it crashes for me right after the Piranha Bytes logo with *any* version of wine that is not the Arch build of 3.9 (non-staging). Even my own 3.9 builds crash the game for some reason.

Performance cannot really be improved any further and 70% of Windows perf is to be expected.
Did you test with wine 3.11? I think that 70% of performance compared to Windows may be related to CPU utilisation issues in Wine, because when I run the game with taskset and choose 6 instead of 12 available threads performance drop to even 40 FPS, so it's something wrong, because on Windows this game use just 2 threads most of the time. When I assigned just 2 threads to this game via taskset I just had 12 FPS. I think that in optimal scenerio 80% of the performance is realistic (eg. I have around 80% of windows performance in The Witcher 3 on Linux).

BTW. I have Ryzen 1600X + 3200MHz RAM + Radeon 580 8GB.
