Never understood why they implemented it in a co-op game... Was hoping to see it come to Linux soon to get some fresh co-op with the lads.

Glad to see Deus Ex out of the hands of Square Enix. Although, I don't have high hopes for its future. Fashion Revolution was ok, never bothered with the second. The first one will always be a masterpiece.

I just want RDR2 to work without gripes on Linux. Steam Deck is a nice move. Although I have absolutely zero interest in the device, it will most likely get us a lot of "free" Linux support in the future. Even CDPR who's shown they do not give a flying bird about Linux recently published an update on Witcher 3 where they said:
We’re working closely with Valve on the compatibility and performance aspects of our games on the Steam Deck. The goal is to provide the best possible Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 experience on this platform, while keeping in mind its unique hardware characteristics.
Fingers crossed for more companies going that route.
