      How fucking idiot would you have to be to complain about users sending bug reports. Linux users usually send very detailed bug reports, which can uncover bugs that might happen on all platforms.

          Well, that’s even worse. You are auto-generating bug reports and complaining about the users that send those reports 🤦

        Yes Linux users generate great reports because they care and usually are more knowledgeable.

        But treat the reports cost time and work, and usually this problems will not happen for the majority of their use base.

        So, as the company, you can have 0.1% of your sales generating 20% of extra work that will not benefit 99.9% of the users. It is easier and cheaper to cut that group (us Linux users) instead of support.

          I understand people not wanting to support Linux, that’s fine. But complaining like that guy did is just stupid. Complains about auto-generated bug reports from people that play the game and then complains about that same group of people of participating in the forums. 🤦

      He should have complained to the graphics hardware manufacturers and pushed to get them to release more open source drivers for their hardware. Instead, he bitches about Linux instead of the problem root.

        Instead, he bitches about Linux instead of the problem root.

        1. Game company funds through Kickstarter.

        2. Game company reaches goal from taking money from Linux users.

        3. Game company releases a shoddy port that crashes

        4. Sales data shows that customers don’t wanna buy a separate SKU of a game that crashes all the time

        5. *LInUx bAd!!!*

        Also this is a Steam Deck community. It should be obvious that all discussion around native games centers around stable Steam Deck hardware specs, SteamOS, and the Steam Linux Runtime container solution for games released on Steam, not some buggy (and mediocre) game from a literal decade ago released as tar.gz file into the wild.
