Microsoft came crawling back. EA came crawling back. Ubisoft came crawling back. Square Enix came crawling back. Activision came crawling back. Most viable competitor can’t turn a profit despite third-party exclusives and free games.
Now they’ve got handheld users and the entire Linux gaming community suctioned onto Gaben’s tits.
As a Linux user I can confirm that I only use Steam (with the exception being the Prism Launcher), the funniest part is any of Steams competitors could launch on Linux with minimum effort but instead they chose to essentially give Steam a monopoly over Linux gaming.
Meanwhile Nintendo is laughing it’s ass off because half of their library is based on gimmick consoles that aren’t easily emulated. They figured out long ago consoles would die if they didn’t start innovating
Yeah i like its even open for non steam game launchers ( epic games etc… ).
And the trackpads are my favorite, its so easy to scroll or move the cursor with them.
They even have a super long charging cable. Its just valves baby, you know it when you have one.
The steamdeck could theoretically install epic games launcher!!!
So if the user wants epic games on it then do it ;D
But because epic games doesnt have really good controller support or steam input support it is not so good. But you could just add the games to your steam library ;D
I get all that. But if both companies will the games, then why bother with epic, steam gives a lot more than just the game. Epic is a half baked experience.
At least they do it with a good freakin console. XD
And I love how it’s the opposite of other console approaches.
Everyone else: “let’s rope some devs into exclusives, and make some more in house, that’ll lock them in!”
Valve: “let’s develop improvements to OSS publicly, so it runs better on PC for everyone (and our product)”

exactly, literally every tecnology that steam uses, or created for steam/steam deck is open source
