Just like the title says, why wouldn’t valve give game developers, who refuse to bring their games to the deck, an incentive to come over. Companies love money. I think if valve told the game developers “hey, if you bring your game to the steam deck, we will lower our 30% fee to 25%” or some shit like that. Do you all think this would work?
Even with your clarification, I think I touched on that. Steam isn’t trying to push companies to develop for Linux, instead they are trying to make Linux more compatible with games. That’s why they’ve talked wine and turned it into a very game specific thing called proton.
If they wanted to push people to develop for Linux, they wouldn’t put so much time and effort into developing something that removes that need
