- minetest2048 6y agoRight, I forgot about those Linux porting companies such as Aspyr and Feral Interactive. And Collabora isn't specifically a gaming company, but they and CodeWeavers also helps
- bicolao 6y agoBoth Collabora and CodeWeavers collaborate with Valve (and with funding from Valve?) on the gaming front though so it's not wrong to attribute that to Valve (yes CodeWeavers also improves Wine independently, but that's more than just games).
- ekianjo 6y agoCodeweavers is mainly working to support Proton these days, check out this interview from a few days ago: https://boilingsteam.com/podcast-12-with-james-ramey-from-codeweavers/ https://boilingsteam.com/podcast-12-with-james-ramey-from-co...
- ekianjo 6y agoAspyr has not been doing any porting for years. Feral is scaling down their porting as well. Mainly because of Proton: https://boilingsteam.com/proton-the-native-port-killer/ https://boilingsteam.com/proton-the-native-port-killer/
- account42 6y agoYeah, really sad to see this. When Aspyr released Farenheit and KotOR 2 I was really excited for getting more older games ported but it seems they dropped that.
- ekianjo 6y agoIt's just not economical when Proton does the porting "for free" compared to 6-months ports by Aspyr/Feral for very little change in performance.
