I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.
What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?
The Steam Deck can’t play Fortnite, Destiny 2, Genshin Impact, and a handful of other (mostly online, often free-to-play) games with anti-cheat not enabled.
It’s not because it technically could not, it’s because those game companies don’t let it.
All the various anti-cheat things are supported by the Steam Deck. It’s just a bad policy decision by the game maker to not enable it for Linux, including the Steam Deck.
To be clear: There are several f2p games and other games with anti-cheat that are enabled for the Steam Deck.
And: I do have a Steam Deck and also game ony desktop PC that runs Fedora Linux. And every game I care about (aside from Fortnite, which my nephews play) runs well.
So I basically agree, but I’m pointing out a few very small exceptions.
Oh yeah you’re right! Still though, it’s pretty straightforward to toss windows on if those are your main games, or even dual boot if you wanna get spicy with it! Even then it’s certainly got the power to handle em, even with all windows’ bloatware!
