I'd really like to see the ecosystem move to Vulkan and SPIR-V as well. It's great to see that I'm not the only one! I think Vulkan has a lot of great moment behind it, especially since you can see some game shops porting fairly old games to it right now. Ubisoft's Rainbow 6 Siege is one example.

Kind of bums me out Apple decided to double down on Metal and not just go with Vulkan directly, but MoltenVK is probably fine to deal with that. I would have really like to see all other platforms effectively unite behind a DirectX alternative finally.



Regarding other platforms, Sony is still on LibGNM (and LibGNMX) and most Switch titles actually make use of NVN or middleware engines.
