It's interesting to see that Linux has gotten popular enough that a few of the most user-hostile devs are going out of their way specifically to stop people using it. Other than ignorance it's unclear what their motivations could be. I for one will remember the names of the studios that do it and try my best never to buy or talk about their games.
Exactly. Microsoft never does anything that isn't in their own financial interest.
Even if other people benefit from it, it really is all about ensuring that they have profit growth year after year.
So I can't trust anything that they ever do and nobody else who cares about freedom in technology should either.
I wonder if anyone has compiled any data like that to show who is going out of their way to break Linux compatibility. I'd love to avoid publishers and/or devs that specifically use such anti consumer tactics.
