| schestowitz | "Developers who ship Linux games already now proved otherwise, having profit and advancing a new market at the same time. Practice disproves speculative theories of those who don't make Linux games because they are afraid of the new market." | Nov 29 23:52 |
| schestowitz | " | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | Shmerl, take a look at the top 100 games of the past 10 years and tell me a single one of them that was released on Linux during it's time of production.<br> In this way, I'd say gaming on Linux platforms hasn't proved to do much other than exist. | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | (Modern Warfare/Black Ops, Halo 4, SkyRim, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, Grand Theft Auto, and on and on......not a single one of them was released on Linux.) | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | " | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | "I'm talking about new market, not about "top games". Those who idly sit on what they are used to miss new opportunities. Those who advance the new market - benefit from its growth. Linux gaming now is growing, and those who realize it now, and not in 10 years from now - are benefiting already now." | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | "Like any new market, it's young and attracts pioneering developers, rather than slow and bureaucratically burdened companies." | Nov 29 23:53 |
| schestowitz | " | Nov 29 23:54 |
| schestowitz | It's a fact the Linux gaming market is growing, but none the less it still remains a marginalized market. | Nov 29 23:54 |
| schestowitz | It's possible the area may become a serious area of gaming in the future, but again, in order for such to occur, the standard business models of gaming are going to have to radically change. (which I doubt will happen any time soon) | Nov 29 23:54 |
| schestowitz | The music (audio) area is growing as well, but again, none the less it is still a marginal market (as it regards size). | Nov 29 23:54 |
| schestowitz | On the music end, I think there's a better chance of major business model shifts taking hold. In fact in many ways I'd argue those shifts have already began. The gaming industry, for better or for worse, is not making similar strides however (at least on the software end). | Nov 29 23:54 |
| schestowitz | Though I'll note, gaming has taken some interesting steps as it regards OS practices on the hardware end, and it will be interesting to see where that goes. | Nov 29 23:54 |

| schestowitz | The prevailing business market system can in fact silently "force" a hand. For example, I'd love to ditch out on my "regular" IT affairs in favor of devoting that time to assisting with the i2p project or music software development. | Nov 29 23:55 |
| schestowitz | Unfortunately, the later efforts don't put food on the table. Nor do they generate monetary revenue for me to feed back into the project. As such, the prevailing business models of IT force a situation where I'm more concentrated on IT efforts other than where my primary interest/passion are. | Nov 29 23:55 |
| schestowitz | To echo back to the Rockstar and the Red Dead Redemption example, you might say "$100 million buys you a good amount of peoples time". Given current economic realities, It's significantly harder to obtain such time and dedication from people without money backing it, which in and of itself begins to echo back to what I was saying regarding a need for a change in standard business models in the area (a reasonable rate of | Nov 29 23:55 |

| schestowitz | "Surely not every activity will bring profit. We were talking about the gaming market and Linux in particular. It can and does bring profit." | Nov 29 23:55 |
| schestowitz | "The point of CDPR/GOG was: * Dare to be different and don't follow assumptions of the herd. I.e. if there is potential in something, even if it's very new and unique - one can still win on going that route. * Make quality products (otherwise you'll for sure fail). * Respect your users (i.e. don't use DRM and other such junk)." | Nov 29 23:55 |
| schestowitz | "I'm still waiting though for them to start selling Linux games and applying their black sheep approach to their own distribution channel." | Nov 29 23:55 |
| schestowitz | " | Nov 29 23:56 |
| schestowitz | I get their point, agree with it even, unfortunately such ideas don't always fit in with today's economy. | Nov 29 23:56 |
| schestowitz | The fact is, the ruling economic mechanisms of today say "generate profit". Generating progress and innovation is completely secondary to the generation of profit. One might say the world economy suffers globally from a case of misdirected primary business goal. | Nov 29 23:56 |
| schestowitz | Today's "Capitalism" is a far cry from the "Free Market" outlined by Adam Smith in "Of Morals..." and "Wealth of Nations...." . Not only does it not always create better product through competition, it FREQUENTLY ends up inhibiting the creation of better products.....oddly enough, this inhibition often is brought about due to market competition in collusion with what can maximize profit. (the Dupont and Tesla court case is a | Nov 29 23:56 |
