The first two yes, but is she actually a fascist? Outside of her being a terf I think the rest of her political views are supposed to be pretty left leaning and anti-authoritarian.
Regardless I think enough other people were more directly involved in this game that people should be free to play it guilt free if they want to.

There were hundreds of people who worked on the game, and the game itself went out of it’s way to feature trans characters. I doubt there’s a single AAA game or mass produced product out there that isn’t partially owned by some individual who you don’t want to support, so I think singling out hogwarts legacy in particular to boycott is kind of meaningless.
You could argue that by boycotting it you’re sending a message and just singling it out as an example, but the game already sold incredibly well and is a huge success. I don’t think there’s any reason at this point that someone who grew up enjoying harry potter and wants to play the game should feel bad about it at this point. Seems silly to deny yourself something you might enjoy over some small change going to a billionaire you don’t like.

Looks like almost all of this update is focused on improving support for other handheld devices.

Awesome, glad to hear it!
- Comment on [Help] Trackmania / Ubisoft instant-script fails 3 days ago:
Someone very recently was complaining about ubisoft not working on their deck, so ubisoft may have changed something.
Not an ideal solution, but if you have a working install for it you may be able to copy your prefix folder for the game to her deck.
Alternatively you might be able to install and get her set up on a windows PC, then copy the install folder from that. This will be trickier though since you’ll need to probably copy install and config folders for both the game and ubisoft connect I’m guessing.

Been having a blast with Make Way lately, it’s a top down racer where you start each round by building new sections of the track and adding traps to it. It’s really chaotic and fun, and supports up to 6 local or online players

I’m not sure, one proton db review mentions they can usually hit 40fps on high graphics, which sounds decent.

Clicking on the beta link should download a EmuDeck-beta.desktop file that can be run on the deck to install it. The download is working for me, but you might have to right click on the link and hit “save link as” if it doesn’t download normally.

Do you know if it’s hardware or software issue? If it’s software, you can make a steam recovery drive and fix it that way. There are options to re flash everything or just repair steamOS system files. You can actually get stuck in a boot loop by maxing out the internal storage, so it might be worth booting into recovery and deleting some files if you think you’re close to maxed out.
As a cautionary warning, the SteamOS recovery media doesn’t properly support wifi 6 on the OLED deck, and might crash the wifi card, requiring you to reboot and start over. If you’re on an OLED deck and your router supports wifi6, I’d recommend only connecting to the 2.4GHz network provided by your router and not the 5ghz one to avoid this. Ethernet is also safe if you have a dock.
If your issues are hardware based, you can still send it into valve and they’ll give you a quote on the repair cost. Obviously it will depend on what’s wrong, but I usually hear of people getting pretty fair repair quotes.
- Comment on Market research firm International Data Corporation estimated that between 3.7 and 4 million Steam Deck had been sold by the third anniversary of the device in February 2025. 1 week ago:
For additional context, handheld PCs in general were estimated to have 6 mil in total sales during that period, so the steam deck is 2/3s of the market.
Some additional quotes from the source material:
“I think it’s amazing,” AMD gaming marketing boss Frank Azor tells me, discussing IDC’s numbers for handheld gaming PCs. “This didn’t exist three years ago; we went from nothing, zero, to incremental category creation in the millions of units.”
But out of those 6 million shipments, the lion’s share have been the Steam Deck itself, according to IDC’s estimates. All of the 2022 shipments are the Steam Deck, and Ward tells me upwards of 50 percent of the 2023 shipments and 48 percent of the 2024 shipments are the Deck as well. Doing the math, Valve has now shipped upwards of 3.7 million Steam Decks and has quite possibly crossed 4 million by now.
With as few as 2 million Windows handhelds shipping in two years, it’s not a huge surprise that AMD and Intel aren’t spending big on more custom chips like the one that’s still working perfectly well for the Steam Deck — particularly if the rumors are true that early Windows handheld buyers returned their purchases at unusually high rates. (Anecdotally, I’ve seen lots of open-box stock of the Asus ROG Ally when I’ve looked at Best Buy online and in-person.)

- Comment on Another EA issue 1 week ago:
Ok so origin is apparently being killed off in two weeks, and they’ve already started killing the origin APIs
People with it installed already are able to get some games to work still, but functionality is now broken and the devs aren’t going to try to fix it since origin is supposed to die soon anyways. So I’m not sure what the way to play origin game with friends is now.

Did you do the ‘WINEDLLOVERRIDES=“version=n,b” %command%’ launch option?
- Comment on We Can Now Get Steam Deck Buttons Made Out Of Stone 1 week ago:
Just swap the buttons to match Nintendo layout, and then there’s a toggle in the steam settings>controller to switch to Nintendo layout

- Comment on Steam deck OLED 1TB or Asus ROG Ally X with Bazzite? 2 weeks ago:
If you’re not wanting to play real demanding games I would suggest the deck. It’s cheaper, has much better warranty, better input options, etc.
I’d really only consider the Ally if you actually need the extra performance and aren’t worried at all about the cost. if you do decide you want the Ally, I would recommend reading up on their recent warranty scandal stuff first.
- Comment on Another EA issue 2 weeks ago:
According to protondb, you need to replace the EA app with origin.
Check the second review by “L4ZaRu5”, it has a guide.
- Comment on Should I say fuck it and buy a steam deck now? Before all the tariffs hit. 2 weeks ago:
I didn’t think valve will change the price due to tariffs. The deck was originally sold at a major loss to reach valve’s target pricing, and they can afford to lose money on it because it drives game sales.
The deck has sold a lot more than expected, which has brought manufacturing costs down. I suspect the Deck fully profitable now, but if tariffs make it unprofitable again I’m pretty sure valve would rather eat a loss on the hardware and keep enjoying the increased software sales per steam deck owner.
- Comment on SteamDeck drawing setup (Huion HS64 and Krita) 2 weeks ago:
Glad you found a working driver for the tablet! There are drivers available through aur, but they mention they’re deliberately out of date because the newer drivers won’t support older devices. Looks like quite a mess to identify the newest driver that would work with your device, and that would be on top of needing to find a good way to install it with the deck’s locked down file system.
- Comment on Steam Deck / Gaming News #9 2 weeks ago:
Unfortunately I’m worried that this will lead to other high budget games all upping their cost as well. Supposedly large studios have been wanting to push up the per-title cost for years now, and have been hoping that a major player will set the precedent first.
