Gabe Newell himself said "piracy is a service problem," and it really shows because buying on Steam is 10x more convenient as a Linux user than pirating the game.
Especially with Linux gaming, I think Valve has made it more convenient to just buy games.
- stavros 3y agoSteam is a godsend for Linux. I no longer have to even check where a game plays, I know that a Steam game will play on Linux. Nowadays I buy games mostly as thanks to Valve's Linux efforts, as I don't really tend to game much.
- iforgotpassword 3y agoIt's still not every game, checking protondb before buying is good advice.
- stavros 3y agoThat's true, that's oversimplification on my part. I tend to like older, non-AAA games, and I haven't had a single one of those fail so far.
