I think more in terms of having a breakthrough in mindshare. A big game that is exclusive to Linux, at least for a few months or more, could give Linux the buzz and mind share it needs. Saying "Battlefield 4 will be released for Windows/Mac/Linux" doesn't mean nearly as much for Linux as saying "Battlefield 4 will be released for Linux-only this year".
