    Steam and Penumbra

    Yes, it's obvious: the mac version.
    So since I got EU3 through Steam on the Mac and I saw most of the first party Paradox games with mac ports on the library, that means there was something in the contract between Paradox and Virtual Programming allowing this redistribution, or at the very least things were renegotiated to allow it. The question is: could terms for redistribution on Steam with Frictional games also be done this way. And would paradox need to be the publisher on Steam?
    And does this bode well for Amnesia; knowing they're releasing on all three, will it still be published through paradox on steam?
    Will the mac version of Amnesia be in the same kind of distribution limbo?
    Assuming Steam on linux turns out to be more than a rumor (source on linux is not: Postal is pentaplatform), will the same kind of limbo apply for Frictional games?

    Hi,

    We're only involved in the Penumbra games on PC = not involved in the Mac versions or Amnesia. You'd have to ask Frictional Games about the details on those.

    Kind regards
    Susana Meza
