I would prefer "Deckard" (rumored portable VR headset) over a Steam Deck 2.

Quoting: legluondunetSteam has a similar service with Geforce Now, but you do not have access to all your games, it depend on devs authorizations.
Soon we will no more need a gaming console, nor install or tweak them, to play games on Linux, we will just need a good internet connection. And we will no more need to buy expensive graphic card, with Geforce Now you can play on your TV in 4K/60fps/RayTracing if you have a good internet connection.

Before that, we need all these streaming services to stop screwing with Linux giving us a lower resolution.

wich make no sense, i can understand netflix giving us lower resolutions thinking it may be easier to break their DRM and as result this content leaking on pirate websites with max resolutions... (it leak anyway, at least make sense they try to prevent)

but gaming? the resolution dont mater for an interactive exp, pirating the imagen isnt the samething unless you are talking about cutscenes (maybe music as well).

Yeah it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense on why it's done for gaming. I don't get it either, and would be curious to know if any readers know why they're doing it.

I always thought they assume "Android" when someone is using Linux. Thus a portable small screen device, thus a lower resolution. Don't know if this is true though.

I would really like to be able to run SteamOS on a laptop. Would be great to be able to tune image quality, fps, and battery usage like we can on Steam Deck. And the Desktop Mode is really useful on a laptop.

Unpopular opinion:

I think it's too soon for a standalone VR headset for PC games (rumored as Deckard), unless Valve expects developers to specifically target Deckard. But you won't be able to play current gen PC VR games on it.

The Steam Deck has awesome performance, but for portable VR (like the Quest) we need 3664x1920 resolution and at least 72fps. The problem is that the Quest has it's own low spec library. Deckard has to be able to run VR games intended for a (high end) PC (because that is what people have in their Steam library)

That said, I still hope it's Deckard, but I expect the slightly upgraded Steam Deck.

Does this do any enhancement? Because I can confirm that the Steam version of Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II already runs great on Steam Deck (only the menu's are 2 fps for some reason)

Maybe there's an error in the Pop!_OS data. It is 2.97% of Linux users and gained 2.97%, meaning it was 0% previous month.. Does not seem correct to me.

I would like to play MGS1 on a very low resolution with pixelated textures as it was on the PSX. I prefer that style over the more smooth graphics of the PC version.

What I got from reading the replies to legluondunet's post: Apparently, playing roms needs to be justified. So, that kinda proofed his point about it being unethical.
