I am happy about the raise of popularity of the new handheld PC consoles, but still Windows on handheld device is a deal breaker for me.
I know Steam Deck is not perfect, but the proton compatibility layer, the OS and the console-like experience is something I would pay extra money for, if other manufacturers adopted it.
I’m not sure about this one, but my understanding is that steam deck is the only one that can suspend a game mid play and have the ability to resume.
If it were not for that, there would be times where I just don’t start a game because I only have 15 minutes.
Now, I can do a quick ten minute game while waiting for a zoom meeting.
Another fun thing is that for playing older games that use Proton:
It might not run on Linux natively
It might not run on the current version of Windows
It might run on your specific hardware natively in Windows
But somehow, it still manages to run well in Wine/Proton (sometimes better than on Windows)
Yeah, I 100% agree, I have been an exclusive Linux gamer for a few years now. It helps that I do not really play online. Just the other day, it kind of blew my mind when I thought about how far gaming on Linux has come. I think most gamers could switch over to Linux and be just fine.
