I’ve never tried Cachy OS or played fifa lately, but I always test every possible situation before inviting people in front of one of my computers.

That way, they only see a curated and tested version of the Linux world.

But it’s not like I’ve converted anyone😅

Not yet but the games I wasn’t able to find on GOG are Killzone 2-3, Uncharted 1-3, God Of War 3 and GT5.

If I remember well, some of these were reported as too demanding for the Deck last time I checked.

And even if I could play them I’m too lazy/scared to install 10 plugins and I wouldn’t want to have a short battery life.

Looking forward to replaying some of the PS3 classics. Although for emulation I’ll probably have to wait until I get something more powerful than my Steam Deck.

I’m in the process of selling all the physical Playstation 3 games that I managed to get for cheap on GOG, but the exlusives and others will have to be emulated.

But did you try these games on a big screen with the Deck?

I’ll try running ACC again because I’ve just watched the wrong settings video since it was unplayable.

Non c’est bien ça le problème, pas d’ami proche qui pourrait me rendre ce service, juste des connaissances.

Mais à la lecture des autres commentaires, je pense de plus en plus attendre et me construire/faire construire un pc gaming dans quelques années.

I already have a dock and might be exploring waiting 3 more years until getting something more powerful.

To be honest, it’s only for the sim racing side that I really need something powerful. I tried Asseto Corsa Competizione on the big screen with my wheel and it was unplayable…

But I might just use my Playstation 5 for this for a few more years even if I wanted to get out of that ecosystem and fully enjoy Linux gaming.

That’s clearly something that I’m already doing and enjoying.

Still I need something more powerful for sim racing even if all my other games work well docked.

But yeah the Deck can be surprisingly good when docked, especially if like me you don’t mind 720p and 30fps👍

Thanks for the links. I’ll have a deep look into these!

Do you think I would have to wait so much?

I’m not in a rush but 6 months would probably be too much.

The form factor isn’t really important, but the fact that I could just buy it and not think about its specs was a big plus.

I don’t need more power than the PS5 so the Steam Machine would be enough.

This being said, the upgradability of a prebuilt would be great, as long as it ain’t too noisy and power hungry.

I’m clealy looking in my personal adress book to find someone who would be techie enough to order it for me and pass Valve selective process😅

Would you have any suggestion? I was looking at what tuxedo offers, but I’m a bit lost with the specs.

I’d not want to take the risk of paying and then being told that the Machine can’t be delivered to my house.

Thanks for the proposal, but since it involves huge sums of money, I’d only try with someone I know in real life😇

Well then I’ll have to try it one day and report about the experience.

I’ve never tried it, even if I know people are using it.

Still it’s not an easy solution like the one people are using when upgrading from an old to a new iPhone.

I know Linux doesn’t have Apple behind, but it’s better than Windows/Mac in every other way, so why not try to improve this?

Yes because Linux encourages you to make it your OS by customizing it, but it’s not easy as it should to create a backup of all that work so that you can easily deploy it on another computer.

I know that Clonezilla works in some situations or that NixOS coulb be a solution, but it’s not should be easier.

Well that’s why I’m trying to share my gaming between GOG for the DRM free safety they provide and Steam for all the good they’ve done for Linux gaming.

They all have their downsides and with Steam you don’t own your games.

I’m a vegetarian, using my muscular bike a lot and trying to buy as much local food as possible, so I’m trying to do what I can.

I’m sorry if I offended people, by saying these physical dics would be an ecological problem for me. I agree that just a few people would probably buy them and it wouldn’t be a big deal.

It’s just that, as long as we have a DRM free digital games, I don’t really see what physical games would bring except easier resale (and collection/decoration).

If it helps GOG bring better features and games, I’m not really against it then, even if I wouldn’t buy their physical games.
