Yes, this statistic is seriously skewed due to small number of Linux games compared to Windows.

Now if they could release stats for *only* cross-platform games, that number would be very different.

Huh?
Since when is that an argument?
Only 30% of steam games are on linux and that was never a problem for the Steam HW survey numbers interpretation. And why should it be?
This is about pc gaming per-OS market share. Not about linux-games-only per-OS market share.

These surveys are completely different.

The Steam survey is not bound by what games people are running. Or what games are available.

The Unity survey is specifically from Unity games, and a lot aren't on Linux, so it's obvious Linux is at a disadvantage in the survey making it flawed.

Quoting: HomepcgamerI do have a big soft spot for Don't Starve, especially as we played Don't Starve: Together for GamingOnLinux 6th birthday (see this picture).

Reminder... You have to plug in your laptop... the battery is dying! hehe :D

That's actually for my mouse ;)

Whatever their intentions in other parts of their business, open source should be applauded when it's as useful as this.

Quoting: Grimfist2.000 games, this is amazing. And yes, we need more day-1 releases, this is true.
And yes, I am also missing WoW (although working mostly good with Wine) and Blizzard games in general on Linux. But this won't change in the future sadly.

I think Albion Online will help with people who want a WoW-like on Linux, but I don't suggest it until the full release due to character wipes.

Quoting: omer666In fact graphics are what made me install it, Warcraft II being one of the games I played the most while being a teen-ager, along with the first Quake.

That's why I like it too :)

Quoting: CorbenThe info that the beta will have the first version of Linux is up to date: 2016-03-27 [External Link].

That's good news, i just hope that's not a "we wont even try to build on Linux until then" and more "its just not ready until then".

Quoting: PeciskEdwin, I will just say that I will buy Shadow Of Mordor (has been eyeing it for some time now) just because of community support and communication like this. Thanks. Keep being awesome.

Thanks :)

I totally bought Mordor due to the Feral port to Linux - I've learned to trust Feral ports. Trust me when I say this, many of us here want to see you get a LOT more business - I just hope there's enough of us for that to matter :-)

Then we just need good folks like you and others to buy their ports when they arrive, and not before :)

That answer is too old to matter now, i should probably reach out to them and find out the current status.

Quoting: Avehicle7887I like this guy, a brutally honest dev and likes to write in details. I can see he has taken many things into careful consideration such as OpenGL 3.2 and common Linux libraries which are found in most of today's distros.

10/10 I'm sold.

That sounds interesting, do you have some links you could share?

He talks about it directly in the blog post linked.
