They wouldn't need to break anything. They could instead make the 32bit libraries optional, and show a warning if the user tries to play 32bit Linux game. The user would then have two options: Either play the Windows version through Proton, or install the missing libraries to play the Linux version.

No memes/shitposts/low-effort posts, please.

That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include AI-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.
