    It’d be telling if later iterations of idtech (should it continue to develop) switch away from Vulkan on desktops.

    Would be a difficult move considering how ruthlessly performant it is at present.

      It may be but the engine team is mostly Ex-Crytek folks carrying over from Carmack’s work with OpenGL. Even the Raytracing support is just a Vulkan Extension. They could change gears.
