Does the existence of Wine compatibility layer discourages the creation of native Linux games?

and i have found appimages that fail to worm due to some dependencies too. This is not a solved prooblem for linux. And no, flatpak isn’t it either

I want to add on to that, flatpak even struggles with native Linux games like left4dead2. (Hardly any mods work)

yea dependencies seem like a real issue here, I don’t think Linux supports side-by-side versions like Windows does, Windows will just install every version of DirectX and libraries like that
