If you have Morrowind on Steam I can recommend a very useful tool called LuxTorpeda, which allows you to use various native engines or open source re-implementation of the game engines directly on Steam. :-)

Quoting: CFWhitmanI never expected to be stuck so long on my Vega 56. However, until I start seeing new cards for MSRP or less, that's going to be my card. I expect that eventually either the demand will lessen or chip production will catch up or the world will end. We'll see.

I'm still stuck on my RX 590 and I still fear that the GPU fan will die one day, because I hear some clicking coming from it for a few months.

But in past years I usually didn't play new games and I don't need 4k or ultra high details. If the game runs and it's fun, it's enough for me. So I will wait till the price will come down or the market situation will changes in other way.

I had problem that the game froze when it lose connectivity and it started happening too often, so I stopped playing. Hopefully the linux version will have this sorted out.

I was playing single only, so this really annoyed me. Otherwise the game was really fun and liked to play it.

Maybe they could now go open source.

Quoting: Lachu„we saw the Phil Spencer of Xbox had access too and commented on Halo, Age of Empires and xCloud working nicely.”

Mueeehhhhh ... !
So MS test these games on modified Arch Linux?

This would be awesome, but I doubt they used Arch Linux. They probably reinstalled to Windows.

Quoting: elistoCopyright need to be removed from existence.

I agree. But we should still honest author rights (Developer studio rights) for the game, but when the game is no longer officially supported, the code should be made open and the license should be changed to free software license automatically. This is what every software should do, not only games.

If company no longer supports the software, please give it to public, it will either die, if it's not popular or it will be supported by community.

Quoting: bepopProton is better than half-assed ports. I'm looking at you Total War Warhammer II :<

Curious, what do you find so bad about that port?

Performance is worse than running it with Proton and WAY worse than running it on Windows (3900x + 1080ti). Delayed patches and no multiplayer with Windows. It's a joke

Hm, I didn't saw any performance issues on my AMD RX 590. The multiplayer itself should be fixed in newer Feral ports, let's hope that the fixes from Total War: Rome Remastered get in the TW: Warhammer 3.

About the patches and DLC, I heard from few that they are running the game in Proton especially because of this, but I'm not kind of guy, who needs everything ASAP, so it's OK for me to wait a few more months. I would say that in this case the issue will be most likely on CA side, they probably don't give Feral much till released for windows version.

If you don't have a point of reference (Windows version running on Windows) you may think that there are no performance issues...

Let me rephrase it, I didn't noticed any performance issues on Linux, maybe looking at the Windows version side by side beside the Linux native version I would notice something. But for me it's playable and I have fun with it. Not much else matters to me.

I'm glad that Feral will port the TW: Warhammer 3. This makes me so happy :-)
