He should have complained to the graphics hardware manufacturers and pushed to get them to release more open source drivers for their hardware. Instead, he bitches about Linux instead of the problem root.

Instead, he bitches about Linux instead of the problem root.

  1. Game company funds through Kickstarter.

  2. Game company reaches goal from taking money from Linux users.

  3. Game company releases a shoddy port that crashes

  4. Sales data shows that customers don't wanna buy a separate SKU of a game that crashes all the time

  5. *LInUx bAd!!!*

Also this is a Steam Deck community. It should be obvious that all discussion around native games centers around stable Steam Deck hardware specs, SteamOS, and the Steam Linux Runtime container solution for games released on Steam, not some buggy (and mediocre) game from a literal decade ago released as tar.gz file into the wild.
