          Smite I played quite a bit back in the day, but they went hard on the "collection event skin" shit where you needed to buy like $300 worth of shit in order to get the new fancy skin or whatever the frick - I left as soon as it started getting like that. Its a pity because as a MOBA its one of the better ones and they started out with the "pay a flat rate, get all characters" thing and even legendary skins were cheap and relatively infrequent/unlockable through play. Then that changed and I can just imagine how shitty it is now years later

          Pity if the anticheat prevents it from working on Linux though.

    I fear the day Gay Ben dies and whoever's left in charge decides to pull the plug on their Linux efforts and sell out.
    I still remember the times before Valve stepped in and hired their own GPU driver developers to fix the driver shitshow, back when Nvidia was the only viable option for games on Linux.

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      Valve just happened to get in on things when the AMD driver situation was already improving. Not going to say that they weren't pivotal in funding the work, because they were, but it probably would have happened even without their involvement, and at this point if Valve exits it would slow things down for a little while, but it wouldn't stop things.
      Kids forget Linux gaming has been progressing in fits and starts since the 90s. A lot of the people who are involved today are the same people who were involved back then, all that's really changed in some cases are who is signing the paychecks for critical projects like Mesa, SDL, and Wine.

      I don't think Valve will change their position any time in the forseeable future, even if Gaben dies. Valve's ownership structure, and their interests in making money on local gaming will keep them from selling out.
      Its like buying music may be 'obsolete' as a business because subscription music streaming services are the big thing now, but people still buy music and its still a big business. Just not as big as appealing to the lowest common denominator.

        I'm not so sure about that. AMD might've managed to get their shit together, but I remember when Mesa in general was never supposed to have support for OpenGL past 3.0 in compatibility profile mode.
        >Oh your OpenGL 4.6 application doesn't work with core profile? Just fix it yourself or complain about it to the developer.
        But that's not how it works. Hell, some older Linux native games like Deus Ex Mankind Divided still list a Nvidia GPU as a hard requirement.

        • 1 year ago
          Anonymous

          Thing is, even back then AMD's involvement was basically limited to releasing the specs, and then hiring a few of the developers that stepped up on Mesa.

          I don't want to minimize Valve's contribution here because they did step up in a big way, and they were instrumental behind the scenes on making Vulkan happen. Who knows, maybe they were more involved than we realize in getting AMD to open up in the first place.
          Its just hard not to see GNU/Linux as inevitable for gaming in the long term, because ultimately there's just not money in making operating systems anymore, and hasn't been since Microsoft killed the OS market in the 90s.

          If Valve hadn't been involved things may not be where they are today, but they'd still likely be in a lot better shape than they were. Microsoft just can't help themselves but destroy the desktop because they need to make more money and desktop just can't bring in the cash to make their shareholders happy.

        back during 2013-2016 when Valve was just working on CS:GO, the only reason that happened was that it brought in massive bonuses from selling the keys and skins.
        despite the 'flat structure' when peer-review rolls out if one of the older staff decided to give you a poor review, your screwed. so they would basically force the entire staff to work on CSGO so they could rake in loads of bonuses. Gabe was too busy playing Dota 2 to care so it went on like that for a while until they all left for higher positions at other companies and gabe pushed everyone into doing the VR stuff. luckily valve has a proper structure now and it seems most of the stock is owned by gabe, rest is owned by valve employees. but hopefully gabe owns atleast 51% and leaves it to a trust

      In the past you had to do shit like add values to wine registry or try your luck with overriding certain libraries just to make sure your game runs, and if it run it was 40% of Windows' performance.

            Steam Deck without Proton is just worthless linux OS that doesn't work for games. Read the context, why do you reply without reading the context.

            SteamOS is basically Arch Linux with Steam pre-installed which boots into Big Picture Mode, no need to release anything. You can install it on pretty much any laptop or desktop pc and it's gonna be mostly the same thing.

            Steam is spyware, Arch Linux goal is Versatility. Valve is a control freak that makes you buy their product within their own ecosystem. They are not the same.

            lol?

            >their data grabbing software
            What data? Valve doesn't take any data besides stuff like game playtime which is literally a feature of steam, and an opt in hardware survey. And the improvements made with proton do make their way to wine.

            Read the User Agreement, a contract you sign that says they can use your information on many of their service like fourms to collect and give you ads on your computer because you install Steam. You went backwards on fighting ads not forwards, you are in the same position as Google data collecting, you agree to this.

            >copycat
            ???? lol
            Proton is essentially a Python wrapper around Wine, to integrate Wine into Steam. It doesn't "copy" Wine; it includes Wine. This is how FOSS works. If you release free software then you don't get to screech about other people expanding on it or using it.

            FOSS idea was to make it better not copy it, this is why A.I Art is better on certain developers who spent their time making A.I Art better. Valve did not make Proton better it made it the same with their brand name.

            you do realize linux is built into windows now?
            you don't get to choose how your free software goes around

                They don't do this. They have your game purchase history and your friend's and that's all they need to give you recommendations on their store page like "Because you played [x]" or "Recommended by [friend]". You made it sound like they literally scan your computer looking for shit like some kind of malware like EGS does.

                Installing other OS is never recommended and it's always leads t problems to where the steam community doesn't even understand basic linux troubleshoot. NO you do not want to install another OS and find out that you cant play a game because no one in Steam Deck community understands your OS.

                Yes they do scan your computer, read the User Agreement dumby. They have it in bold words, read it.

                Valve had 1 year, they will never release it. They are doing the same thing with Steam Machines they will not release sales. If even they did we cant even confirm if they are real because only Valve put the numbers. Valve putting the numbers is the same has Sony claiming 1 billion sales. We need confirmation not corporate control.

                But Valve accidentally released the number - over a million steam decks sold out. It happened last year.

                Technically it was sometime in September, which lines up with Valve's statements about how many reservations they were fulfilling a month.
                Right now they should be closing in on two million.

                If they keep going at this rate, and they keep selling the Deck for the rumored 5 years, they may be rivaling some consoles for sales, and get close to the best selling open platform gaming machine of all time.

                Yep you are dumb i said do the same useless thing like not being able to run the game because it's a windows DRM and Valve made deal with rockstar to make it run especially for Proton. Now it does work on raspberry pi. Gosh, why are you so dumb.

                I'm asking why you think the Steam Deck will end up being useless due to Valve dropping support when the Steam Machines aren't useless, despite the dropped support?

                Steam machines are useless, you just saw the person unable to play games and that is without modifications to the default state of the machine. Steam Deck will end up in the same place, you can only do limited things and run into problems with either hardware or software.

                Games will want people to upgrade to better hardwere. Steam Deck is not design to be upgradeable at all, the custom hardwere you brought will be the reason why you can't play the new games. AMD can also just say no to Valve, they are a company who wants profit not a company like Valve that has billions of dollars doing nothing. IFIX it can also say no to Valve, warranty doesn't matter when people who brought VR also had problems, ETC. Valve has a history of never caring about their hardware or causing problems with hardware. This is not any different.

                No, his ability to play games had nothing to do with the "modifications" and everything to do with him installing Windows, which proves that even the Steam Machines aren't useless. But of course games would also work on any modern Linux distro you could install on them as well, so how are they useless exactly?
                >Steam Deck is not design to be upgradeable at all
                Of course not, it can't be. That's not how UMPCs or handhelds in general work.
                >the custom hardwere you brought will be the reason why you can't play the new games.
                What does the hardware being "custom" have to do with whether you can play games or not?
                >AMD can also just say no to Valve
                Say no about what? And why would they? Valve can work with other companies than AMD.
                >IFIX it can also say no to Valve
                Say no about what? Valve can partner with other service companies than ifixit, what power does ifixit have over Valve in this equation?
                >warranty doesn't matter when people who brought VR also had problems

                It can't play genshin impact or any mmo games, you consider this a success? The steam machine only works on steam games, it will never work anything outside of steam. That is why no one brought it, the same mistakes are still present in the steam machines as they were 4 years ago. Nothing changes.

                UMPCs are still more useful because they are actual pocket size that makes them able to live longer than PCs. Steam Deck fails at this, people are calling it UMPC because you have zero understandings what a UMPC is or why it was called such a thing 30 years ago. Steam Deck will never be a UMPC it's a machine that runs linux with custom hardware. Trying to change the Definition of a thing is never going to make it better.

                Look at android, do you see people buying the custom hardwere? no because it's always better to buy the new thing not fix it. Only a few select people will bother to fix it. Steam Deck is not a PC either, you cant switch parts with AMD because AMD only made it for actual PC not 1 dumb deal from Valve that fail to sell 1 million units.

                AMD has history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD#Corporate_affairs
                They dont last long either, Valve is just one of many.

                Storage for IFIX is not cheap, you cant make companies keep junk. Just like you can't make Best Buy keep radios from the 90s.

                Warranty with Valve is always a problem, people with steam machines had problems, VR has problems and there are the same case by case with Steam Deck. You don't have Warranty, you have Valve honor system.

                Valve developers do anything they want, since we dont have any information on why. We can maybe guess someone at Valve wants the controller to work and then it will get abandoned. The controller doesn't work on other things, it's just an Apple like product that only works in steam.

                The Steam Deck is an UMPC. Your comment has nothing to do with the fact that UMPCs aren't upgradable in general.
                >Look at android, do you see people buying the custom hardwere?
                Again, what does custom hardware have to do with it? Do you know what "custom hardware" means, or that the custom hardware in question isn't all that different from AMD's other hardware? What does hardware being custom have to do with whether you can play games or not?
                >They dont last long either, Valve is just one of many.
                All companies have a history of failed collaborations, so what? Does that mean that all their future projects are going to fail? And you never told me why Valve would have to work with AMD in the first place?
                >Storage for IFIX is not cheap, you cant make companies keep junk.
                Again, why would Valve have to work with ifixit when they can work with any service company or even handle it themselves?
                >Warranty with Valve is always a problem, people with steam machines had problems, VR has problems and there are the same case by case with Steam Deck. You don't have Warranty, you have Valve honor system.

                Right now they should be closing in on two million.

                If they keep going at this rate, and they keep selling the Deck for the rumored 5 years, they may be rivaling some consoles for sales, and get close to the best selling open platform gaming machine of all time.

                You can do whatever you want and be just fine. The hardware isn't exactly obscure, it's just an AMD APU. People have installed gentoo on it and ripped the install scripts going to get the steam UI back. It'll play games through proton on any distro the same way it would on steamOS which is just a glorified arch fork. You won't have to ever worry about compatibility issues in the first place if you install windows, which you're free to do and valve still supports it.

                >Yes they do scan your computer

                This is the problem with your claim, you say only 3 linux OS have worked but never tried or read other linux. Gentoo is not user friendly it will never be something for you who wants easy install. How dumb can you be to just assume anyone can install some spyware like Steam on certain linux without problems happening. This doesn't even go into the realms of terminal linux OS that itself is another story. SO what you claim is nothing but short sighted stories of other people who install working OS on steam deck not true assessment of the linux community.

              Technically Valve didn't even make Proton. They paid the company that represents many of the core Wine developers, and who offer other professional and officially supported releases of Wine optimized for specific uses, to create a version specifically optimized and supported for gaming.

          Proton is essentially a Python wrapper around Wine, to integrate Wine into Steam. It doesn't "copy" Wine; it includes Wine. This is how FOSS works. If you release free software then you don't get to screech about other people expanding on it or using it.

        >and if it run it was 40% of Windows' performance.
        Well, if it was a game using standard APIs and not Microsoft non-standard crap it could be 100%.
        The issue that really slowed things down in the past is OpenGL is a high level API, and Direct3D was a high level API, and it was hard to go from one to the other because they didn't line up very well.
        It started to change when Gallium showed up with a mid-level API and Direct3D support started being written into that, for a while there Gallium9 was the reason to get an AMD card with the open source driver because it was so much faster than D3D9 -> OpenGL.

        Its a lot faster now because of Vulkan which as a low-level API is able to have full speed support written in a hardware agnostic way.
        Of course Valve wasn't involved in the initial development of DXVK but they do employ the main developers now, and arguably Valve is the reason why Vulkan exists.

        If Microsoft had their way, Vulkan would probably have wound up getting the same treatment as Long's Peak.

                i still don't see what your point is. sending a survey is entirely clientside, if the requirements for sending a survey aren't met the server won't process it either way. forcing the client to send a survey literally does nothing except inform valve you're sending fake queries to their server.

    FRICK THE SWITCH!

    I wish. I tried Linux recently and loved almost every aspect of it but I hate how much shit needs tinkering. As much as I hate Windows the ability to just double click and have games work with 0 tinkering 99% of the time is great. Sometimes you just want to boot up the game and play.

    Having more support for it would be great.

      >tinkering
      That's heavily dependent on what games you're trying to play. I can name plenty of games I've played that required some tinkering, but a shitload more that didn't.

      Manjaro
      All the benefits of arch Linux, none of the hassle of having to know anything about it to use it.
      If you want to get into the nitty gritty, Google some shit and have fun but otherwise, it's perfectly usable out of the box.

      Manjaro, and if prompted, choose KDE as your default desktop environment. Desktop Environment is in broad strokes the main GUI of a Linux system. There are a lot of different options but KDE is the closest thing to the Windows GUI so it's gonna be the most familiar.

        SteamOS is basically Arch Linux with Steam pre-installed which boots into Big Picture Mode, no need to release anything. You can install it on pretty much any laptop or desktop pc and it's gonna be mostly the same thing.

    do mods work on it?

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      Yes; it's a PC.
      Getting [whatever mod you're thinking about] to work with Proton may or may not require some extra work. If the mod is a DLL (like many widescreen patches are), you just need to add an environment variable that tells Proton to use that DLL. I usually refer to Silent's blog for this:
      https://cookieplmonster.github.io/setup-instructions/#proton-wine
      If the mod is installed by running some mysterious "dude just trust me lol" executable you downloaded from Mega, then I guess you could try running it with Wine or Proton; your mileage may vary. Personal anecdote: This arguably isn't a mod, but to set up Doom 64 EX on Linux, I used Wine to run the batch file that converts the WAD file from Steam's Doom 64 to a format Doom 64 EX can use, and to get that batch script to work with Wine, I had to install Wine Mono or whatever the frick. It worked after that though. Learn to troubleshoot based on logs when things fail.

        you can run .bat scripts with wine?
        I haven't bothered trying anything but adding shit to steam and running it through proton so I don't know how to use wine still. Could you do that with a .bat?
        Doing it through steam creates a compatdata folder that I have to delete manually so it doesn't waste space, does running things through wine do that too?

          >you can run .bat scripts with wine?
          Yes; if I remember correctly, you would run something like `wine cmd <whatever>.bat`.
          >I haven't bothered trying anything but adding shit to steam and running it through proton so I don't know how to use wine still. Could you do that with a .bat?
          Not sure how but there's probably a way.
          >Doing it through steam creates a compatdata folder that I have to delete manually so it doesn't waste space, does running things through wine do that too?
          The compatdata folder that Steam creates for each game contains a Wine prefix. When you just run Wine, it will create a prefix at `~/.wine` by default; you can use the environment variable WINEPREFIX to change that location. A common recommendation is to use a separate prefix for each game (especially when different games require different tweaks or whatever), and that's basically what Steam is doing for you with Proton's bazillion compatdata folders.

            you mean just doing that directly in the terminal? I don't know if the deck has wine just by default
            >environment variable
            I don't really know how to use these, call me a moron but I can't into the terminal really and don't like it
            so by default wine just makes a single prefix and runs everything you use it for in the same one? does the prefix persist like the compatdata folders or does it delete itself when you're done?

    Maybe, but it would be all about SteamOS despite being based on Arch Linux. They are not same. Publishers, Studios in the future would focus on SteamOS and Windows. They will ignore other linux to save their time and headache.

      I used to think this was a bad thing but lately I've come conclusion that it's probably the only way Linux gaming will ever work, based on how a lot of distros and FOSS developers act.

      >probably the only way Linux gaming will ever work
      That's already how it worked for years.

      Look at the system requirements for any Linux-native game (or, actually, any released before Steam Deck, because some developers might actually be targeting SteamOS by now) and you'll probably see that it "requires" Ubuntu. Case in point: The Linux version of Cave Story+ on Steam requires "Ubuntu 10.04 and Newer". That didn't stop me from running it on Steam Deck — yes, the Linux version, not with Proton — and future developers targeting SteamOS won't keep most of those games from running on other distros either.

        Have fun dealing with the devs over Linux. When the devs find out that you don't use SteamOS or Windows, they bluntly tell you that they can't do anything about your problem cuz your specific linux is not supported. :^)

          I'm not having a problem though.
          Works on Steam Deck and my PC.
          And of course they would say only Ubuntu is supported, the same way the developer of Divine Divinity would tell me only Windows XP is supported if I wrote an angry email about a bug on Windows 11 (or, in my case, if I complained about it not working on Linux, which I wouldn't, because with Proton it does).

        As far as I'm aware they're neither targeting Ubuntu or SteamOS, but the Steam client itself; specifically the Steam Linux runtime.

          I don't know what "they" are doing in general these days, but a good number of games' system requirements explicitly say Ubuntu. One example is Cave Story+ supporting ""Ubuntu 10.04 and Newer" as already mentioned.
          Some other games officially support both Ubuntu and SteamOS. Crypt of the NecroDancer's system requirements section says "Steam OS and Ubuntu 12.04 are the only supported Linux OSes" (though I'm not sure whether the SteamOS in question is the old Debian-based one or the new Arch-based one; it's probably the former).
          And yes, to your credit, some developers apparently do target Steam Linux Runtime specifically. I'm guessing this is the case for Super Meat Boy, for which the OS line in the Linux system requirements just says "If you're running the Steam client, you're good" (a pretty bold claim if Steam Linux Runtime isn't the target).

            AFAIK all modern Linux native games have to target the Steam Linux Runtime, but unless I remember incorrectly this didn't use to be the case, because Valve initially had some problems getting it working properly. That probably explains it.

          where I was just repeating myself about old games.
          Although... Super Meat Boy is an old game too, and so I'm actually very surprised that its system requirements DON'T just say "Ubuntu [old-ass version] or bust", but maybe it was updated at some point.

    I just wish SteamOS wasn't immutable.
    Arch without an AUR kinda feels suffocating. The fact that Steam Deck didn't get KDE connect till like a year into it's lifespan is moronic, glad they have it now though.

    I get that they did this to make it normie friendly though, and I do genuinely appreciate the advancements to linux that valve is bringing, now if only they'd polish up SteamVR to the point that it had Motion Smoothing and the SteamVR Home SDK like on windows.
