Steam Deck!

does it void the warranty?

Does not void the warranty but you won’t get support if you run into issues, you’ll only get support for reinstalling the SteamOS

This is probably the move.

then you can play star citizen at 720p minimized on a 10 inch screen 25fps with the gang

and pirate games. most importantly AvP2.

I wouldn’t do it as Steam Deck os (SteamOS 3.1 “HoloOS”) gains more and more support daily. Literally every 1 -2 days there is a quick os update providing new features and adding compatibility to titles. Also performance drops on Windows in many titles just as some features like hot sap for SD Cards and sleep mode tend to not work at all.
On community front it seems that there is work being done to make easy boot loader which would allow for dual boot in the near future. (I’d wait)

EAC seems to be supported (https:// www.nme. com/news/gaming-news/steam-deck-now-supports-easy-anti-cheat-games-3144260 ).
VTMBH works with it and ate cheat is present and working as it can fail/crash which happened to me once. In such case access to servers hosting sessions is cut off which seems to be also the case for PHG.
It is willingness of Devs if they will adjust EAC for SteamDeck.

If there would be need on Devs side to test modified Anti cheat and they need an experimental specimen I’m willing to participate ;)

Issue is not on EAC side but on the fact that devs didn’t update it for StaemDeck. Package update wouldd solve the issue.
VTMBH works perfectly with EAC on (that is definite - all on Linux).

Anyone get PHG to run on Steam Deck yet?
