The Steam Deck doesn't depend on Steam or Proton either, FWIW. If you want to throw Lakka or another homebrew emulation OS on it, it should work out-of-box.
That being said, I get the appeal of other/simpler handhelds for retrogaming. The Steam Deck's real party trick is a powerful GPU at a decently low wattage, which will go mostly unappreciated playing Symphony of the Night.
- NexRebular 4y agoDoes the deck run anything else than Windows or linux? Or is it vendor locked with proprietary drivers?
- tadfisher 4y agoThe proprietary stuff is all firmware. It runs open-source GPU drivers and everything else is mainstreamed in Linux. So if BSD has the drivers, you could theoretically run it.
