    It’s also on Gamepass. You can play it instantly for a much lower cost to make sure it works. Then buy it if you still want later when it goes on sale.

        Duh, the reason there’s Game Pass on PC is for people to stay on Windows. Microsoft saw the writing on the wall when Valve released SteamOS and scrambled for a way to keep people on Windows.

        And it’s working for me (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

        Send help.

          We need a LSW to run the Windows store on Linux as a pacakge manager

          No, MS wanted to compete with PlayStation Plus. Linux constitutes about 2% of users on steam. MS doesn’t care about Linux gaming and steam OS is no where choose to being a threat to them.

        Self inflicted problem.

        It does work on steam deck actually edit: you can downvote me but I’m not wrong, it works great through a browser

        Give it some time. Valve is going to work overtime to get it Steam Deck compatible.

        Linux isn’t officially supported anyway. That’s like saying it doesn’t work on PlatStation…

          They’ve applied for steamdeck verification

            Not through gamepass.

            I love my Steamdeck, it’s great. But ultimately, most games aren’t originally designed to be played on there…
