  • Your logic is a bit fallacious, although Valve has embraced linux this decision was not made for the good of the community or because they are nice, this decision was made out of pure self-preservation. Valve saw what Microsoft was doing with windows and saw that their business would soon be over if they didn’t free themselves from Microsoft, I’m not talking out of my ass, look at Phil Spencer’s leaked email and you have an idea of the plans Microsoft has for the market.

    GOG on the other hand seems to me to be sacrificing a lot more with their DRM Free policy. Only DRM-free games enter the store, which means that they lose practically all AAA titles and the library they offer is basically made up of old and indie games. From a capitalist perspective, their position doesn’t make sense, as these aren’t games that appeal to a large audience.

    Of course GOG don’t contribute to Linux, but compare the size of both companies and see who has more money to hire programmers for this task. Both companies have different objectives and neither is perfect, both have shown their ugly faces at one time or another. And always remember, corporations are not your friends, they have no morals, only interests.
