Just to be clear, this still only works if you have a video card that supports it (RTX 20 or 30), right?

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI still want to know what the mission is with all of this. Not technically, but from a business perspective.

I get it, Linux customers are paying customers, but Valve have contracted several companies, individuals, fulltime employees, contact with GPU vendors etc. This seems like way more financial and time investment than what our meagre 1-2% is worth.
Someone on Reddit crunched some numbers a while back to answer this question:

Getting a strong Tool vibe from those black and white scenes. Looks like a positively trippy title!

A couple of years ago I was getting sick of the "retro" pixel-graphics look that every indie game coming out seemed to have and figured it was simply something I would have to come to terms with. Now I'm seeing so many games with interesting art styles coming out and I love it!

Also, gotta agree with @fabertawe: Fish-controlled medieval robots is just what we needed!
