    Why do they implement an old version of OpenGL instead of just Vulkan? Vulkan is much simpler than OpenGL and also the newer standard. I don’t see the point in implementing an older standard except for backwards compatibility.

      They said the hard part isn’t implementing OpenGL, it’s reverse engineering the GPU. Once they have OpenGL they can do Vulkan pretty quick
