What does this really say, other than even if it was literally technically zero-cost to port a game to Linux, studios would still not bother about it ?
(This is ignoring the fact that I rather doubt we are at the "zero-cost" level and that Android has probably the worst backward compatibility of them all)
- pjmlp 3y agoIt does say exactly that, even with very high GNU/Linux compatibility in what concerns porting Android games, no studio cares to make it, because there isn't worthwile from monetary point of view. Actually, not even the studios that were invested into Stadia, cared about GNU/Linux, even though Stadia was mostly Linux based.
