Windows runs 10 out of 10 games, Linux does 8 of which 4 only barely run at all.

Don’t get me wrong: Windows really is the worst OS, except all the others.

I know there’s more to PC games than just steam, but honestly the only issue I’ve had playing games on the steamdeck is when there’s some horrible anticheat service required by the game.

I guess the problem is that the games with anticheat also tend to be quite popular ones with some people

I thought the same thing until a couple weeks ago, then tried out EndeavourOS which is based on Arch and comes with Nvidia drivers. It’s been awesome and I’ve been able to play whatever I want.

Out of curiosity, can you name some games that don’t work?

My favourite game was always hacking around in Wine to make games work. Once I got them working I lost interest and moved on to the next game… Now I don’t have time to play games. :(

Yeah, out of dozens and dozens of games I’ve ran, about 2 or 3 didn’t work
