I have a Steam Deck, and I love it. It can handle 90% of my library, and it’s always improving.
I decided to try out a linux distro for my OS, because the biggest drawback has always been the hoops that I had to jump through to get games up and running. I went for Pop OS, since that seemed to be natively friendly with NVidia, and the lowest barrier for entry. However, in Steam, I see that there is a much more limited selection of games compatible with my system. Is there a way around that, to get the same selection as my Steam Deck? Or is it this way because the Steam Deck is a singular platform that is developed for based on specific architecture?
Also I seem to remember doing the same on my Deck a while back, possibly he also did it there but forgot about it since this is a do once and never again thing.
That was exactly what happened. Once I realized it, I smacked my forehead.
It’s funny because when you described your problem I also knew immediately what the issue was since I remember turning that setting on for my gaming PC back when steam play was new (been gaming on Linux exclusively since 2016).
But for the life of me I can not remember turning on that setting on my steam deck. I must have since it works with all games but I really can’t remember switching it on.
