Jim, thanks for your answer. So it would be hard to exit "windows world only"...

To me, DirectX12 is good for Windows users and Nvidia/ATI industry (except Windows XP users of course ;-)

OpenGL/Open GL ES is good for Windows / Linux / MacOS X / phones / etc... users

This morning, i watched this conf (oriented of course but i agree with most of the intervenants ) :

Moving Your Games to OpenGL -Rich Geldreich (Valve), Dan Ginsburg (Valve), Peter Lohrmann (Valve), Jason Mitchell (Valve)

Moving your Games to OpenGL (pdf, 65 pages)

Most of Indie games makers choosed OpenGL of course
