Shower thought: Valve could do the ultimate boss-move this year (discuss.tchncs.de)

If Valve really wanted to make a splash, they could release a desktop version of SteamOS in October, right when support for Windows 10 ends. For additional damage, they could bundle in Half-Life 3. Just imagine the coverage this would get.

If people want to ditch Windows then the gaming industry needs to stop gating the community. Either get rid of the shitty anti Linux anticheat or tell them to turn on Linux support naturally. For fucks sake I can't believe I find out most anticheat just needs a simple email to turn it on for Linux.

I agree entirely. An argument could be made about native Linux releases being too much but most games run with Proton if the devs don't intentionally cripple it through kernel anticheat or other arbitrary limitations.
