Tl;Dr valve is also a developer of AAA games and they are committing to developing for Linux as well. They are also building the tools to more easily develop for linux. As more AAA games are released, it gets easier (because of the tools) and more fruitful (as more people switch) for developers to release on Linux as well.

It's basically a snowball effect. The success of steamOS will look pretty spotty initially but valve are playing the long game here.
