MODERATORS
I'm sure the 2% of Steam users that they were almost definitely losing money supporting will enjoy this announcement for decades to come.
Taking away advertised features that literally one single person bought your game for is unacceptable.
You're welcome to have that opinion. My opinion is that this is a niche issue that doesn't actually affect anyone's ability to play the game because dual-booting an unregistered copy of Windows and using tools to remove the watermark isn't difficult. It's realistically not a problem unless you're hyper privacy-sensitive, in which case there are cut-down versions of Windows out there that strip all of the gunk out.
Umm... pirating windows is your recomended solution?
Look don't get me wrong I could say it's if anything more cost effective for simply the dev's to say "OK anyone who has more than 1 hour of linux play time prior to this date qualifies for a refund".
Of which, most likely is a handful of people so easy work.
Screw privacy sensitivity that's a moot point. Installing windows isn't a minor tweak to a computer .First of all the suggested method is technically breaking the law. Secondly you are talking minimum adding in a windows partition, so an extra 50 GB storage on top of the amount the game takes. Comprimizes to the boot loader on the system, in which there's a high chance of messing up an existing install.
Windows is malware.
But that's entirely irrelevant. It is literally impossible for any business in any scenario taking a feature away that a customer paid them for to be forgivable, and should unconditionally constitute fraud.
