Jemolk: Arrogance? Perhaps look in a mirror. A Linux version was promised. A Linux version has yet to be delivered after multiple years. We do not even have news on it. Some of us are getting a bit understandably impatient with the foot-dragging.

As for switching to an OS that isn't "basically dead and uninteresting," the Linux market share has been rapidly growing, and the Linux community has quite the foothold here at GOG, and elsewhere. Most indie games lately have been released with a Linux version. Ubisoft, EA and the like haven't shown any signs of budging, that is true, but Ubisoft and EA are well known for the kinds of abhorrent business practices most of us are at GOG to avoid, so what do I care? And for the record, Squeenix isn't much better, if any.

I might also point out that the Linux userbase on GOG is likely higher than on Steam simply because of the confluence of ideals, where Linux is the OS best for user freedom, which bears a striking resemplance to DRM-free ideas. However, we do not have exact numbers for GOG, so I can't say for certain. What I CAN say unequivocally is that your numbers for Steam are old and no longer valid.

There is also a sizable Linux gaming community, and we do stick up for ourselves. Claiming that we deserve third-class status simply on the basis of bizarrely skewed numbers that have very little relevance for determining whether it would be worthwhile for a company to put in the (fairly minimal) effort to add support for us in exchange for a drastically increased likelihood of recieving our money is moronic. Use your bargaining chips as a consumer. Even those companies that go out of their way to make consumer-friendliness their brand aren't going to consistently act in your favor without prompting. Simply being grateful for the scraps tossed your way by those who have a great deal is for corporate slaves and fanboys. If you want something from a company above and beyond bland mediocrity, you frequently have to force their hand.

You insinuate that we act like we're entitled to this. No, we're just using our bargaining power as consumers rather than surrendering all control of our lives to faceless corporate entities. You have this bargaining power as well, and using it would be good for you. However, it is in no way the fault of anyone else if you opt to cede any semblance of autonomy to those with influence and funds in favor of not having to think about what's really in your best interests as a consumer. Just don't attack the rest of us for using said bargaining chip to improve things for everyone, yourself included.
