    If only the Xbox controller wouldn’t randomly disconnect on Linux. No, i bought it because i read it works well here.

      This is my biggest downfall with Linux, lack of integration with gaming but I’ll learn to leave without it, I guess.

        Sounds like bait but I’ll bite.

        Most singleplayer titles work perfectly fine under Linux. Majority of my steam library runs with compatibility toggled in steam.

        I’ve got a Switch Pro controller, no issues via Bluetooth or Cable connection. Gives me battery readouts via Dunst

        Running Wayland with an NVIDIA GPU in both my systems.

        I heard some recent steam thing made it pretty great now? Or was that just marketing talking?

          It’s been for a few years, the only problem is with some multiplayers games (and it’s quite a easy and complex question)

          RPGMaker games are hit or miss

          Overall, if its on steam and it’s not a MP game chances are it will work out of the box

        When was the last time you tried? Steam Deck has allowed Valve to dedicate lots of time to fine-tuning Proton and it works with virtually every game now, save the ones with specific kinds of online anti-cheat systems.

        You can also just add your Epic and GoG games to Steam Launcher and then they’ll be launched with Proton as well.
