Quoting: 14I don't really understand what they're going to do with this.

Offering not only a game engine, but also the hosting when you've created an online game? Does that make sense? :-)

Quoting: EikeAFAIK the main Linux developer at Valve doesn't like Debian's package format.
If that's true, then I don't think it's worth discussing any other reasons. This one is the only one that matters :P
Would be interesting to know the details on that however since it doesn't make any sense.
Still waiting for someone to jump in and show the source...

I wouldn't say Attentat 1942 was a very good game, but it sure was an intense experience to me, and quite educating. I'll buy the next one, too.

I look forward to all the improvements KDE Plasma will get with the Steam Deck

Quoting: BielFPsI'm not a kde user, but I am a fan of some of their software like Krita and Kdenlive, so I'm happy that their efforts are being recognized and hope that those improves include their wayland compositor too.

The biggest success story of KDE though (if we like it or not) is KHTML, which as base of Chrome took over browser world domination.
