It’s not harder to run, but the devs ime give it less attention and testing before release. Also undeclared required libraries are super common so the game just doesn’t start until you check the logs to find out what it’s missing.
I’d love to see more Linux builds, but only if they’re actually something the dev cares about rather than just ticking all the checkboxes in their game engine’s export menu and saying “fuck it we ball”
wrong.
4/5 Linux builds I’ve used on steam run significantly worse than the windows build through proton or just crash.
ok buddy sure native applications are harder to run than ones through a shim.
And yet for games they are.
