Any news on Steam-less VR support for Vive on Linux?

Oh, whatever they are thinking is a different thing. I doubt they care to think about Linux at all.

Comments he made weren't relevant even then. They were more of a rant. They are even less relevant today than they were then.

If you want to be formalistic, itch.io accept DRMed games. GOG don't. They are a minority on itch, but still. But this is not the main point here as before, since Croteam aren't releasing their games anywhere outside of Steam. Neither GOG, nor itch.io or Humble. As some suggested above, that's because their games are multiplayer (I never played them, so I had no clue). And rely on Steamworks. In such case they are locked into Steam. That's what makes quite a lot of games Steam exclusives.

About what I wrote above. That GOG are pushing DRM-free gaming, and Steam do zilch about it.

Not in the way of putting some common sense in the thick-skulled heads of legacy publishers. Who besides GOG works to revert their bad practices?

I use GOG primarily because they do more than anyone else to advance DRM-free gaming.

Since Croteam games aren't found on itch.io either, you are for excluding non Steam users in general. As I said, I find it inappropriate and quite surprised such attitudes are found among Linux users.

You are apparently against asking developers to release on GOG. I find it wrong and inappropriate. How would you feel if someone will say next time, that developers shouldn't release on Steam, because someone is against it? I.e. that would exclude you. I doubt you'll appreciate that.

Quoting: LeopardGOG zealots are on their run again.

What's your problem with asking developers to stop ignoring Linux users who don't use Steam? If you don't have this issue because you aren't excluded, why are you upset that others bring it up? Reminds me how some Windows users are upset that Linux users ask developers to release games for Linux. Exclusivity is bad, you should know better. But I guess, some don't feel it, until they get the short end of the stick.
