Comment on We Now Have 16,000 Steam Deck Verified/Playable Games To Play Through
bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 3 months agoI mean if someone is addicted to only playing one really specific MMO or MOBA and it’s not available on Linux I kinda get it. But if you’re the sort of gamer who enjoys lots of games, not just one, then there’s really no excuse at this point for sticking with Windows

I don’t know about other MMOs but Final Fantasy XIV runs incredibly well on the Steam Deck under Steam OS. It’s my current addiction but for this, at the moment there is no reason for me to go through Windows, and I like it this way.

With the recent crowdstrike nonsense and Microsoft reviewing their kernel access policies, it may be a non-issue in the future, but we just have to see what happens. I do wish valve would start really pushing these companies with kernel anticheat solutions to support proton and steam deck. It’s like they pushed for the first 6 months of the steam deck’s life and then gave up. They are really on the cusp of something truly disruptive in the pc gaming space with the steam deck, getting those last few games like cod, fortnite and valorant would really push that momentum away from Windows. Maybe they simply don’t want to pick a fight with the 1000lbs gorilla that is Microsoft, only gaben knows.
