I was annoyed when they did a mandatory update at cost to the players.
They sure did a poor job managing funds & delivering as a well oiled machine.
Their split was a move to drop off all the negative reviews on their steam page.
40$ for a poorly built RTS? I say poorly because my kind of RTS is StarCraft 1 & 2.
My girl & me couldn't get into PA. And we're not willing to pay more money just to see if its still terrible.
There's my opinion.

Sure I like that I can use Open Source Drivers. What I don't like is how much juice I get out of AMD.
Who cares if its 16GB and 3Ghz if I only get 30% juice out of the card on Linux.
I never thought I would spend 800$ on 2 GTX 970s but I did, I would have rather owned AMD but that requires equal or superior specs to nVidia on Linux as its my only platform.
So AMD - Fix It. I don't care how, just do it and take my next 800-1200$ please!!!!

2) Or a dev could code in a Interface class to abstract library access to make porting as simple as dropping in a new Interface to Linux/Mac libraries.
3 ) Or a dev could maintain a optimistic view without falsely coercing a crowd to gather excitement for X game.
Nothing personal, but when a dev fails to release for Linux this is what crosses my mind
"I don't know how to code outside Microsoft Visual Studio 2015",
"I don't know how to Linux - looks like DOS to me, choice is confusing",
"Android is Linux? What?"

Quoting: Eike1) Or a dev could literally think about their destination before beginning to code and selecting the games libraries, and causing a dependency entrenchment.Quoting: Avehicle7887Ehhh, not sure why devs keep making these kind of deals, if they were lacking funds I can understand that but on the other side of the coin, there are alternative ways of obtaining funds such as kickstarter.It's probably safe money versus taking a chance.
I'm sure they've had their reasons but looking at the bigger picture here they're leaving 3 platforms dry which could mean some good profit, especially from the PS4 side.
I understand taking the safe side.
