    Hear me out… But should we be asking why there are so many things, steam included, that are still on 32b libraries?

      I mean the answer is pretty easy: video games generally have a long shelf life and no maintenance at some point after they’re released.

        Your compatibility layers can be 64b, however, and support those 32b games that don’t even run natively on that hardware anyway.
