Go Vulkan!

This was inevitable. Vulkan was built on Mantle, and has essentially superseded it.

... And Vega is coming, that is built around Vulkan. AMD's strategy is working as planned..

maybe being next generation OpenGL that will help loosen microsofts strangle hold on PC games and make them far better Linux friendly
if anything can help cut my ties with windows I'm all for it [I'm sure microsofts intellectual property lawyers are on stand by to steel it away ]

too bad someone like John Carmack is not still around to take advantage of this as he did with OpenGL in his id games [not the zenimax / Bethesda fraud it is today ] . we know how Linux friendly they were .
