Problem is even when they do, they don’t maintain support. Borderlands 2 has a native port but it hasn’t been updated while the windows version had received new content and patches in the years since.
windows does add a bit of value. It is a set of apis that the oss community can’t just decide to deprecate and think it’s fine because “all the code needs is a recompilation!”.
I have not had a single native linux port %hat is out of support and still works 100%. The most reliable option for me so far is to just run the windows version.
Developers should still try to optimize Linux performance with native Linux ports.
