I definitely agree. While I'm sure that they'd like to see the Linux
client out the door at some point, I know it's not going to be a huge
priority for them. But not having a Linux server is suicide in the
online gaming world. And while it's true that Epic definitely makes a
lot of their money from licensing out their engine to people, I know
that they'd also really like to make money on the game as well. And if
people aren't playing it because there's very few servers to play on,
that's very bad for business.
