Roblox doesn't even run on Windows 11 on some machines because of Core Isolation and updates.

Quoting: emphy

Quoting: pbLol, and what were they counting on? That Valve would just send them the payout without a second thought? I doubt the payments are automatic and if they were, then I'm pretty sure they no longer are, at least for the small devs/games.

I'd be more worried about what sort of malware may have been included in the download.

Reminds me a bit of the recently reported issue of forking attacks on github.

This could actually be the start of something worse, like steam and open source taking a reputation hit. Sounds like a conspiracy theory but then again if there was no malware along with no payout then it seems more likely. (They could just be dumb.)

Quoting: lordgaultWhat they are saying is that they barely have the resources to maintain the game on Windows. So it's clear that they won't do it even for Proton.

I was actually on their discord and in a steam discussion for a large amount of time when the EAC proton push first started, I tried many times to reach and convince them, but despite supporting consoles AND trying to add some jank modding support for them (with a 1GB limit according to a few people on their discord,) it does not appear they will budge on this; I brought up many times how they initially promised linux support and now that someone else did most of the work it's only a small push away with arguably the same or less work than a hotfix patch (they need to upgrade their SDK if they have not, then click a few buttons.)
