I’m on Fedora KDE. I think it was drivers. I had the official drivers just fine, but at the time (18-24 months ago?) they were shitty and breaking some games on my GPU so I switched to alternate drivers. I think the drivers are better now, but I haven’t switched back and cleaned out my repo list.

Yep, this is the way. Pretty much every game works fine unless there is specific anticheat or some launcher nonsense.

Samsies. Steam Deck showed me it was possible. Made the switch a little after that (waited for Hell Let Loose to turn on EAC for Linux).

This is why I have used flatpak steam. It’s a lot easier to manage drivers in it vs the shitshow that is doing it natively with adding custom driver specific repos and whatnot.

Hoping the new PC I just ordered (with an AMD GPU) will be better with the native app.

No one is that dumb. Right? If you’re in the inner circle, you know.
