Not as massive an achievement as Proton getting nearly every Windows game in existence running well from unmodified binaries on Linux.

- yurishimo 3y agoDon't let perfect be the enemy of the good. Think about how many Steam Decks have been sold. Game devs are already actively targeting the Deck. If porting games to Mac can be made easier, we all need to actively encourage it. Unfortunately, the only way we get Apple to give us more game dev tools is by porting the games. I have a Steam Deck and a Mac. I would love to play half the games from my Deck on my laptop.
- icapybara 3y agoDo you find this is a good solution for playing Steam games? I have an older PC, and I'm thinking about replacing it with a macbook air and a steam deck. Does the steam deck feel more limiting than just having a windows PC with steam?
- LegitShady 3y agoonly get a steam deck if you're really interested in portable playing. You can build a better desktop from old parts. The steamdeck is an interesting device that's doing a lot for gaming via proton, but that makes tradeoffs for battery life and portability. If you're not interested in the portability just get a desktop. If you're interested in the portability but need a large screen, get a laptop. If you want a sega game gear form factor that can run steam games get a steam deck.
