    It’s also on Gamepass. You can play it instantly for a much lower cost to make sure it works. Then buy it if you still want later when it goes on sale.

        Duh, the reason there’s Game Pass on PC is for people to stay on Windows. Microsoft saw the writing on the wall when Valve released SteamOS and scrambled for a way to keep people on Windows.

        And it’s working for me (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

        Send help.

          No, MS wanted to compete with PlayStation Plus. Linux constitutes about 2% of users on steam. MS doesn’t care about Linux gaming and steam OS is no where choose to being a threat to them.

          I’m happy not supporting Microsoft’s worse and worse OSs. I’m happy running Arch and it just works for me. Unless a game is predatory or shit it works fine on linux.

        Linux isn’t officially supported anyway. That’s like saying it doesn’t work on PlatStation…

            Not through gamepass.

            I love my Steamdeck, it’s great. But ultimately, most games aren’t originally designed to be played on there…
