Incorrect again.

uh… ok. It really is that simple, I play games everyday on Linux and that is exactly how I’ve installed 100s of games, so I’m really not getting it… Are you talking about enabling Steam Play in the Steam settings or something?

I don’t know. The “that’s the story of the time I tried to play games on Linux” indicates that I, and most every other user, doesn’t care enough to spend all day burrowing through search engines and support threads to figure out how to just make the thing work.

I don’t know why you are telling me this, I’m not the King of Linux or anything. Just thought I might help you with your problem, I don’t know what I did for you to unload all this on me lol

As a reminder: the topic of discussion is the difference between SteamOS and any other OS + Steam.

Ah, I wasn’t the original person you replied to sorry. If it isn’t Nobara or Bazzite, chances are most distros will require tweaking to get gaming to an acceptable level.
