So, I checked the most anticipated AAA titles of 2016, just to see how accurate this statement is, and here's my findings:

Dark Souls III: No Linux support

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided: Linux support announced for October

Final Fantasy XV: Doesn't even have PC support

Mass Effect Andromeda: Pushed, but Bioware has hinted SteamOS support

Mirror's Edge Catalyst: Has gold rating in Wine

Overwatch: No Linux support

Street Fighter V: Announced forthcoming Linux

The Last Guardian: This is the most vaporware game ever

Uncharted 4: Isn't this a PS exclusive?

XCOM 2: Full Linux support

Once you knock out the games that don't even play on PC at all, or have been pushed to 2017 or later, it's a pretty competitive list. You miss out on two games, which sucks if you were looking to play Dark Souls or Overwatch, but hey, you can always keep a Windows partition on the back end to sate your need for player-abusive titles, if that's your bag.

Thanks for the research.

Even though I loved the ME trilogy, well most of it) I don't plan on getting Andomeda or any Bioware title again.

Yeah, I've been really disappointed in some of their decisions since the EA takeover. It's a bummer, considering how awesome they once were. Maybe they'll keep giving titles to Obsidian or something -- I've had serious issues with some of their stuff in the past, but lately they have just blown me away with the quality of their work.

I don't own a single one of those titles and yet I play PC games quite a bit. Gunny thing is I probably won't buy any of them except maybe xcom 2 even on sale latter.
