I think it's a longer term play.
Step 1) Establish a large enough non-windows userbase with great compatibility tools
Step 2) Studios and especially game engine developers notice linux install base
Step 3) Some tangible benefit to running natively, if only stability, pops up and the userbase is now large enough to care about it
Step 4) Engines, and then games get better native support
- mariusor 2y agoI am pretty sure you're wrong. Here's a tweet from 2021: https://x.com/flibitijibibo/status/1416118465442852869 https://x.com/flibitijibibo/status/1416118465442852869 To quote from down the conversation: > @flibitijibibo (Jul 16, 2021): Don't look at me - I'm just trying to figure out how much time I have left, either way it's pretty clearly finite Also some anecdata from someone that pretty much bought all native linux releases from Steam since the linux version was released: in the past 2-3 years there were barely any new ones, outside of Valve's own titles maybe.
