Quoting: Kimyriellewhere studios can't ignore the Deck (and thus Linux) anymore

They don't ignore Deck but clearly ignore Linux unfortunately. (see Forspoken)

IMO the game will clearly benefit from ZRAM swap or 32 GiB RAM instead of 16. What is the Deck's SSD random read speed?
Also I am guessing the game tells it is not for HDDs because the game assumes your system is capable of compiling shaders at a certain speed but Linux is nowhere near that speed (telling from experience) because VKD3D shader compilation goes through more steps.

Quoting: LanzDoes the remake require EA App?

Requires agreement to a 3rd-party EULA
Dead Space EULA

Aaand that's it. No mention of Origin / EA App on Steam.

Are the dynamic state extensions useful for shader compilation or am I just making it up.

Quoting: Matombosounds like they normaly render with dx12 but have a buggy fallback for dx11 or vulkan in the engine.

The overlay has "vkd3d" in it which means the game uses DX12.

Quoting: tpauNow we need to run a nintendo game on it with higher resolution and fps than on the switch itself with a few mods

That's the easy part!

Quoting: Liam DaweDon’t see what that has to do with anything. I’m not a Linux zealot and will use whatever I feel fits my life best

Out of curiosity is there a specific reason why you keep Windows around?

Quoting: Linasthey pulled from Steam, did that blueprint/lootbox thing, killed Linux support

These are related to revenue so Epic may be interested in touching these parts instead of how anticheat is handled.

Quoting: GuestDidn't Epic deliberately make devs remove Proton support for Fall Guys, or is that a different situation?

Fall Guys never natively supported Linux, (not to be confused with RL) FG stopped working when devs added EAC. At the time EAC was added, EAC had no Proton integration so devs had no choice. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/4123#issuecomment-692699553 [External Link]
At a later time devs added EAC Linux supported and FG started working again.
