    How many people contributed to the Kickstarter based on this promise? Will they receive a refund?

    I mean, native ports are cool and all, but are they really needed? I would assume the game runs just fine with Proton.

      There are some very vocal people who will tell you that proton is just a stopgap measure, and shouldn’t be relied on for the future of Linux gaming.

      That said, I know the devs have been putting in effort/patches to make sure the proton/steam deck experience works well, and I consider that just as good. All I really want from devs is actual support of the Linux platform, and if they choose to do that through a tool like proton I’m ok with it.

      It’s very unfortunate for Mac users though.

    Given that a common subset of the Win32 ABI is now a reasonably efficient virtual machine for running PC games on Linux and (soon) macOS, we can probably expect “do Mac/Linux ports” replaced with “make sure the Windows .exe runs on Mac/Linux”
