(I know the EE versions were also ported to Android but - I suspect - with Google Play Store DRM, and the versions I have are GOG and Steam)

@brokkr
Have you tried using something like Winlator? This program attempts to run Windows games on Android and it might work with your GOG copy of the game. Here's the link: https://winlator.org/ [External Link]

I can't see why Bazzite would go anywhere even if SteamOS is starting to gain some traction from major companies like Lenovo and MSI that are putting it on their own devices unless the creators decided to end the project.

Otherwise, if Linux can have many distros, then it shouldn't be any different on the gaming side as well since it's great to have many choices to choose from if you didn't want to use Bazzite and wanted another SteamOS like variant.

The only thing I did was use option to reset my password using my Gmail account and after that, I logged in using my Gmail account as the username and the new password. It's not the best way but it doesn't leave anyone with any other options.

The OrangePi Neo doesn't look too bad and the specs sounds fine for what it is but the battery could be a lot better though. Overall, I hope it succeeds the same way as the Steam Deck.

As much as I would like to applaud Lenovo for being the first one to release an official SteamOS handheld, the Lenovo Legion Go S isn't jumping out at me to buy it because those trackpads look terrible and the specs are not too good.

@mylka
The thing is that I actually have a subscription under my Gmail account and I'm not going to switch to another email provider or create another new account.

On a side note:
Anybody knows why I can't login with steam on the desktop version of this site anymore?

@KROM
It's because of these links:

I used to be able to login with Gmail but that was taken away as well.

I would be surprised if people played most of these competitive games on these handhelds. Those are the games with anti-cheat. The only exception might be Fortnite, which the average user wouldn't figure out you needed to use Heroic to get installed on a SteamOS device in the first place. Anti-cheat is a problem, but it's a bigger problem for desktop Linux players than for the Steam Deck or GPD Win.

@pleasereadthemanual
Fortnite doesn't work on Linux or SteamOS because Epic will still block you from playing the game and Timmy doesn't like Linux.

so they just copied https://github.com/hmlendea/gfn-electron [External Link] ?
great work nvidia

That app doesn't work if you're authenticating with Gmail to login to your GeForce NOW account. I've tried it before when attempting to login with a Gmail account and it fails because Google blocked services that use Electron. With Nvidia making a native app for SteamOS (and maybe Linux), it should work the same way as the clients on Windows and macOS, which is a great thing.

Good of them to respond and reverse the bans, they are probably very sensitive to bad press atm since it's been such a positive launch overall.

Wait until they start changing to a new anti-cheat software once the cheating becomes rampant and to this day, it's stupid that people have to cheat on online games.
