I did not realize they were trying to compete in the first place.

Even though proton is legitimately amazing, I love turning on the filter in steam that shows Linux native games in my library. There are so many of them!

And it’s not just new stuff. Plenty of old favorites have Linux versions too. All the big valve titles of course (including Alyx) and classics like all the infinity engine RPG Enhanced Editions. Being able to hang out with my family, sitting on the couch, but also playing high res Baldur’s Gate with a trackball is some real gaming comfort food.

Huh? Am I missing something? All of Valve’s VR games show up as Windows only, running on proton. I think Deadlock is in the same boat, though maybe they’ll add cross platform support before release.

I think Linux is not formally still not production ready.

Maybe I missed something. Looking on the website on my phone it looks like windows only, so I’m not sure why that stuck in my head. I’ll have to double check on the PC to see what the heck I thought I saw.
