Well this is going far off the point of the article ;)

There is no issue for me, but for others the issue would be Steam's DRM and I have been quite open on my views on it, I don't mind it but I see why others might - Hence the need for DRM Free downloads too.

For me I use Linux because it's free and I can customize it however I see fit, I also tend to get better performance than Windows.

This is why we ask developers if it's possible to get DRM Free downloads as well as Steam.

As for Windows only titles, again we are getting there but we need to reach out to developers.

Personally though for me it isn't much of an issue, especially since I don't see Linux going anywhere especially when it's free and open source anyone can pick it up, the issue for me isn't the OS at all.

I don't see it as a problem myself since when buying games from Steam I know full well I am taking the risk that if I move to a platform that doesn't have Steam then I can't play. It's only a problem if you don't understand that risk for me.

Until other platforms like Desura and IndieCity can have a bigger reach more people will do Steam Exclusives. Not many developers want to spread their games over many websites.

New project, no existing stuff of course to allow for new joiners to get in on it. Close date extended, the only rule is don't cheat which should go without saying.

Quoting: tigerOnly one game has linux support and the others "will" have in the future....

Also, not impressed by anything here, pretty lame titles IMO.

[ this "prove you are human" captcha sucks, and if you enter it wrong your post is deleted, great! ]
Yeah I'm not too impressed either, not until they all come out anyway.

As for the captcha it is necessary or else we get a lot of spam, I will sort out it not deleting comments now though.

Edit > It will no longer delete your name and comment if you fail the captcha, enjoy!
