I was simply offering a case where steam isn’t the simple solution to gaming on Linux, as described by the post above.

I never said I was describing a ‘problem with Linux’ or a ‘problem with the game’.

Not all games are available on Steam or will work with steams proton/wine/whatever.

Game publishers have the right to choose how and where they publish their games. If I can’t install and play them on my machine I simply won’t. AS there is already an endless list of great games I haven’t played.
