I hope we see more of this!
Vulkan is nice push - but mobile games can #### off! They are #### - sure mobile is alright for ####ty casual games but we are not going to play AAA titles or competitive titles on mobile devices!
I personally hope Vulkan wipes Direct X off the map. PC developers please start embracing and indeed, snogging Vulkan ! Lets see MS die ASAP.
How would you feel about this making Android consoles take off? People keep trying to make them, one day it might stick.Quote:

I am finding Win 10 less stable than 7 though. Occasional hangs, and niggles like the kids asking where the sound has gone as it doesn't seem to cope so well with headphone insert/removal with multiple sound sources.
I need a better choice of games to play to stay in Linux though, or perhaps an RX480 so I can afford to drop 30% performance vs Windows and still get playable frame rates :)
Thats exactly it. I dont get to choose when it does updates, it just does it. If you're on the ball you can schedule them to another time but in my experience it just does what it wants. I even modified my group policy to block updates without me enabling it again and then one of the updates disabled it... Honestly I dont know why they dont just have the same system as 7 where you can choose to tell it to check for updates and notify you, then you choose when to download and install them. Unnecessary removal of control.Quote:

Imagine how many support calls MS used to get when a user's system is acting up and when asked what was the last time they updated their OS they reply, "I don't know maybe 1-2 years ago?" -> MS: "Eat bricks, now you are getting updates whether you want them or not." Still, I wish there was a somewhat easy way to disable that.Quote:

I'm not a hardcore gamer, so am pleasantly surprised by the games I can play via Steam. I'm not so fussed about Android gaming, but I expect greater adoption of Vulkan will ensure a healthy supply of games on non-Windows platforms for the forseeable future.
