They just talk about Steam games that were verified by Valve’s process. So yeah, as you said, it’s much larger for people who are willing to do a tiny bit of tinkering 👍

You’re not an idiot, I had the same issue with last epoch and it took me a while to understand. Half rate shadering has no side effects on most games so I didn’t see this coming 🙍‍♂️

This keyboard seems worse than any virtual keyboard 😅

To be honest I was recently forced back into Windows by my employer recently and I don’t get it’s good for :p

As I wasn’t using my desktop much I sold it and the deck’s desktop mode is my main computer now. In that perspective I really prefer bazzite’s gnome and more permissive package management.

I’m not a snob. I’ve just never had a PC good enough to run most games at 60 fps. I’ve just never acoustumed to this level of confort 😛

If you’re too lazy t replace SSD, the native btrfs support of Bazzite might do the trick :p

Is there currently any drawback in using bazzite compared to stock SteamOS? Like stability-wise or missing feature missing?

The UI can be a bit tedious but it is intuitive, with a bit of training and exploration you should be able build anything you have in mind. Enhancing community layout can also help, for example I usually map back buttons to joystick buttons because it would hurt my thumbs.

If you want a fun thing to start exploring, I’d suggest touch and radial menus. They are a pretty unique feature and it’s pretty easy to make them useful on games with keyboard shortcuts mapped to some settings.

Aslo, have a try on online tutorials 🙂

Steam Input & double touchpad is also an insane feature. Right now my main game is Dofus : a turn based tactical MMORP. This game is probably one of the most keyboard+mouse I could have thought of, however it has A LOT of keyboard shortcut. I maybe spent one hour fine tuning my layout and now it feels almost better playing it in console mode.

Turning a PC game into a console game like this almost feels like magic, I really love this big boy and really hope it will have successors in the distant future.

And also this game is not even on steam, the global openness of Valve letting me do whatever the f**k I want with my device is very welcome.

This. I can’t wait to test bazzite, a community alternative of steamos 3, which would never have been possible if the deck wasn’t so open.
