MODERATORS
Well I think its fair to agree to disagree, or hold different stances on that first point.
Yep, I just dont care about such people, in terms say wanting to make a game any of them would want to play.
I acknowledge thats just me personally and of course other people in other situations would be valid in caring about that demographic.
As to the second point, you may be right, and I may be wrong.
I would say there are far too many variables to forecast how everything will evolve accurately, but I guess I can say that I am confident that the share of linux gamers will grow, and that it will almost certainly spawn analagous, linux games to the current Windows Exclusive ecosystem, but i grant that many other forces at play may impede or prevent certain existing games from doing the work to allow online linux capability, or for bigger established studios heavily influenced or outright funded by MSFT to develop new games or compatibilize existing games in that manner.
