Oh c'mon. That's not the reason. I've not tried it, but I'm pretty sure that shit is hard.

There's one little annoyance for me with this PC info system. I have two GPU's but can't enter that into the statistics.
Doom (2016) could have been on Linux, id Software made a Linux version sound easy to do

Why the eff would they do that? You know that M$ is also a game publisher, right? That means they are competition. Also, M$ has enjoyed PC-gaming monopoly for decades.

The problem for us is that they only go where the short term money is (just like Bethesda, EA, Activision, Ubisoft etc.), which is why they are currently porting games like Skyrim to the Nintento Switch which has been very successful. Games sell really well for the Switch right now, but like most consoles it will probably become obsolete within the next decade. I think those investing in Linux like Valve, Feral, Square Enix, Aspyr, VP etc. are in it for the long run. Linux as a platform will never go obsolete like a console will, and it's a good insurance policy in case M$ decides to do something foolish with Windows like locking out traditional apps in favor of UWP and Windows Store.

Quoting: slaapliedjeZeniMax is all about taking a successful game of theirs and re-releasing it again and again (look at how many editions of Skyrim there are). They could do that with doing Ports too. Not sure how Valve would like that though :P

Carmack left id a long time ago, and that's pretty much when they stopped caring about Linux. Id is now owned by publisher Zenimax which has shown absolutely zero interest in Linux, so don't get your hopes up. Even if id wanted to bring games to Linux, Zenimax probably wouldn't allow it.

Quoting: GuestHi Liam,
Have you tried contacting John Carmack or anyone from id Software and ask why they are so anti Linux? Doom runs great on WINE and has performance parity with Windows when using Vulkan.
Linux gaming has improved a lot since Feb 2013.

Free to play MMO 'War Thunder' has a big update with a revamped game engine

Yea, the grind is obviously designed to trick players into buying as many micro-transactions as possible.

Quoting: razing32I played World of Tanks , Armored Warfare and eventually War Thunder when I moved to Linux.
As a fair warning , the grind can be a pain.

I wonder if this improves performance on Linux because I used to play this on Windows way way back and it ran well, but when I moved to Linux i got awful frame-rates even on low settings.

It's better to play the original LiS first though.
Edit: Oh, wait... Now I see what you meant :p
