I don’t want to have to go through a lot of settings to find a way to make the game run properly

Those days are mostly gone

Only if you don't play current games. Booting up something from like 7 years ago? Sure it will run fine. Unoptimized AAA game released in 2024? You will be sweating and turning on every last performance boosting setting your card can manage.

I exclusively run Linux and I play modern games all the time without issues. You just click "install" on Steam and it works 99.9% of the time; I dont even look up the game to check if it works anymore. Also, have a look at some comparisons on YouTube — some games actually run faster on Linux because there's less bloat in the OS.

Not from what I’m seeing in some Steam Deck videos.

Just choosing between performance and fidelity on Playstation is already too much for me 😅

I play on a proper PC, not a steam deck. Of course there are going to be performance compromises on a portable device with an APU; that's got nothing to do with the OS.

Of course but what applies to the steam deck also applies to a lot of PC’s worth less than a thousand bucks.

On a 2000 bucks computer I can only hope that you don’t have to compromise.

You're moving the goalposts now; we were talking about an OS, not console vs PC hardware.

[–] Dariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 weeks ago

OS, hardware..it’s part of a whole. For me the goal is too be able to play every game without hassle at a budget of max 1000 bucks every 7-10 years.

Will see what the future gives us. Maybe the Playstation 6 will be perfectly fine with a disc or maybe we’ll get great Steam consoles soon.
