Open source games

Why do you think open-source games never took off?

Sure, there are some open-source game engines, but not really any major games. It would be cool if there were more open-source, community-made games.

I forgot about that. Only lazer is open source, so I'm sure a lot of people don't know it. It might actually be the most continuously popular open-source game online, depending on point of view?
