Parallels Desktop 12 announced and no DX11!

No DX11. Seriously? How long is this going to take?
Looking at the headline features in PD12 - Sierra ready (PD11 works fine!), folder performance 25% faster (what does that even mean?), password protect files - gives no incentive whatsoever to upgrade.
Very disappointing.

Yeee... Parallels lol 7 years and still no dx11 support.

Hi Guys, I would like to let you know that we have already involved our Development in this case and they are currently working on the resolution.

PaulChris@Parallels, I can only assume this is some kind of sick joke!
Let me jog your memory:
From https://forum.parallels.com/threads/parallels-desktop-11-and-directx-11.329342/ over the last 10 months
There are others, but honestly, how do you guys keep a straight face when replying on these forums? Just the same generated replies over and over again.
In the above thread, one of you said that you were working hard to put DX11 into the upcoming version.
A total farce! How long has DX11 been out now, 9 years? Don't tell me, 'your Development team is working on a solution to this'!

I don't know why, but attachments to my post above aren't showing so I'm trying again! These are just a few!

Can someone from Parallels just tell us why your Development team has been working on this for years, and the user has seen no progress?
Is there a technical issue that is not allowing it to happen, or is your dev team just totally incompetent?

I think, that that Parallels do not work on dx11.
They just copy-paste https://www.winehq.org/winapi_stats

p.s. dx11 support only 13% ready. So, we can relax and forget about dx11 in Parallels
