I was looking for a Wordpress plugin to do that not overly complicated task, but no no avail...

They've worked some additional months on their games (which, granted, was obviously needed).
I think it's not a big deal to fill a form to get such a big upgrade.

Quoting: KeizgonAlso, it is worth noting the developer himself who made Grow Home expressed some interest in a Linux port, but I believe wanted to confirm a way to do it with the publisher's (Ubisoft) permission. It's in the Steam forum, I'd have to search for the thread again, so don't take my words verbatim.

I think this is the main reason why games are ported.
Most times, it's probably not like:
Publisher: ... and now you are going to to a Linux version!
Developer: Oh no!?!
... but more like...
Developer: May I?
Publisher: Sure, why not...

Yes, this is speculation.

Quoting: BillNyeTheBlackGuyOnce again you idiots on this site refuse to understand how businesses work.

But but but they promise. They promised nothing. Period.

It's about time, but we are extremely happy to announce that Divinity: Original Sin will now definitely be coming to Mac & Linux. We will do everything we can to ensure that the release dates are going to coincide with the Windows PC release, but if that doesn't happen, it will be shortly after.

Please refrain from insulting people. Thanks.

One part of business is customers making their decisions on whatever criteria they like.
This might or might not include having the feeling of having been lied to,
which might or might not make companies learn.

Yes, boycoting the game, which some people will do, could end up in them not making Linux games anymore - or it could, if they try to find out why people acted this way, which won't be too hard, make them paying more attention to what they promise and what they deliver next time.

Quoting: GuestSo if:
- it's not cheaper
- does not have the same games as on PC
- is missing most AAA games
- does not have some exclusive games that can only be played on SteamOS

Then what is the incentive?

* easier than PC
* more games than current consoles
* maybe you already own games on it (seems to make Xbox 1 users happy to get to play at least some games they own for Xbox 360)
* you won't lose your whole library by default when switching to the next hardware generation later on

Quoting: sarmadWait a second. GTX 960 or GTX 960m? The difference between the two is day and night. Can anyone confirm it really is the desktop GPU inside that tiny box?

They absolutely say so:
