yes, but there will be a shit ton more tweaking. and there will be little to no help when that happens. if you mean native linux, absolutely.

pay your games, if its indie. support small business

It's a fun thing he's talking about pirating his games. Steam basically killed the PC gaming piracy scene (or reduced to next to nothing). GabeN understood that piracy was never a pricing problem, but a convenience problem.

When it is easier to hack a game to work than it is to buy it then you're doing something wrong. So Steam just makes getting a game and getting it to work about as easy and painless as possible. (Outside of maybe GoG with their no DRM policy, but their selection isn't quite as big.)

you can play Sekiro offline, the only difference is that you won't get bloodstains (I forget what they're called in Sekiro) which are nice but not remotely necessary to play the game.

In case you weren't aware, real human beings with lives and families also work at big studios, so specifying "indie" is pretty pathetic. Support games you enjoy, period. If you're going to pirate, do it but don't pretend you have some moral and just excuse. You don't. You're hurting real people regardless of how many people are employed to work on the game.

yeah, i would totally support company that's ok with sexual harassment, not adding rhe most basic feature , predatory behaviour, micro transactions in 60$ GAME, and adding denuvo to harm nothing but their own user.

i would repay hades or dead cells for the game anytime than this

That’s so bad dude. Pay for games as you are supporting developers

i own black ops. yet if i want to play offline zombies i need to use a cracked version. not all devs are humble little guys.

That’s fair was on more on the steam train of indie devs.

Would be more steps and a bit more complicated on steam os. If you install windows it would be no different than any windows PC. Though steam os is overall a better experience but dualbooting is an option.

Technically yes you can, it's a full gaming PC on handheld format. But please don't pirate games.

The /r/gadgets community determined this statement "controversial" :)
