Hello, this is the second time I'm posting for this project and I hope someone will be interested in it. :)I am making an Action RPG called Reverse Module. All the ideas I currently have are on Codeberg.I also have a Steam page for it.
The game has to do with Utopia/Dystopia balance and it aims to present some ethical dillemas (combined with choices) that will make anyone playing think into how an actual Utopia could be achieved. In the process I hope to make the world a better place, even if a little.
The story begins in a city called Visthansia, where people can have two microchips on them. One of them doesn't allow them to hurt other people while the other calls the police if they're in trouble. These microchips are not mandatory and people get paid a UBI for having one on or double the money for both.
The game will be made in Godot, we will use Reallusion CC4 for the characters (in Windows since there is no decent Linxu alternative) and the Terrain Plugin for Godot 4. Also if something is available in the Godot Asset Library, and is of use for the project, it will also be used.
The GDD, code and assets of the project will be licenced under GPL2. Please let me know if you are interested. :)
My personal background is on coding for games, mainly gameplay. Ii have a degree in Electronics Engineering with a Master's in Graphics Programming and AI. I have been developing games for 20 years now, whether as a hobby or professionally. My aim with any project is to challenge the player's world view or at the very least help the player in some way. My current job is on Brain Training games for people with Alzheimer's Dementia etc.
Having said that, this is not a serious game, this is a traditional game with the goal of making players think.

OP of the original video here. Wait till you see the Nvidia Optimus results. Even I was dumbdfounded by them. Windows is SOOOO bloated it's thermal throttling like no tomorrow on my laptop. Linux is about 20% faster even on Nvidia. XD
This is on an M.2 with a i7-10870H and a 3080M. I installed Windows some days ago on my main Desktop and didn't have to deal with any of that. It must be a new "feature".
I just installed the systems and followed the normal procedure of what any normal user would do. If you can't deal with the facts that's your problem.
Usually on an AMD GPU things run better. Then you look at the API. If it's a DX9/DX10/DX11 game it will most certainly run better on Linux. On the other hand if it's a DX12 game you will probably get the same performance most usually and +-10% in a few cases.
So the main thing to remember is to use an AMD GPU on Linux. If you're on Nvidia you're better off with Windows most probably, unless you care enough for the workflow benefits Linux offers.
After that, it should be smooth sailing.
How are these cherry picked games? Did you maybe want me to benchmark the 2k games in your library? XD
Also CS2 is slower on Linux.
Proton (DXVK/VKD3D) is faster. The lightness of the system also helps.
I am not doing CPU Encoding on any system but there is a difference indeed.
Linux is Gstreamer VAAPI H265 and Windows GPU Encoding H264. In fact, Windows should have had an easier time encoding, I didn't realize that until now. Also asI have commented on the video the game is on a 980 Pro on Windows and on an HDD on Linux so Linux can be much faster. I will rectify that by getting an SSD to put all my games on in the future.
Beyond that, the methodology is not flawed, if you can even believe that. Everything is on the video for comments exactly like this one.
You are most welcome. I really think disbelief in how much better Linux is derives from a really cumbersome past. I've been benchmarking games on Windows and Linux for 3 years now.
At first performance was a little better/same on Linux, then it improved and then it improved vastly.
Don't fear that Proton is a compatibility layer. Linux overall (with its lightness, better Filesystems and optimizations) can achieve great results like this in most DX11 games. I will do a MIrage Benchmark as well on Tumbleweed vs Windows 11 to see how things are on he DX12 side. Ray Tracing is not ready on Linux on AMD yet so that will have to wait.
Actually, this seems like Spotify, I was talking abou something with comments and likes, kinda social. That would be even better imo.
People will at some point need to realize that they have to donate and not pay a compulsory fee for products that are worth the money. It may not be apparent now but this is where the world is heading. When Youtube Premium also starts having ads and there's a higher tier for no ads then things will start moving and fast.
Makes sense. I have great hope for NVK, the open source Nvidia Vulkan driver, in 1 or 2 years. Perhaps then, things will be the other way around. :)
