Baldurs Gate 3 on Steam Deck (self.linux_gaming)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by Chocrates to c/linux_gaming
 

I am a grumpy old man that is/was pissed that we aren't getting a "real" Baldurs Gate 3, but as it gets close to release I am sadly getting excited about it.

Has anyone played Early Access on the Steam Deck? Is it fun/playable on there? I do nearly 100% of my gaming on that now and barely touch my dedicated gaming Ubuntu machine these days.

Previous Larion Studios games work on Linux, so even if it's flaky on launch, I suspect it won't be long before it starts working well

Baldur's Gate 3 Early Access has already been working extremely well on Linux for the past few years while it was in development, so this combined with what you mentioned about their previous track record, I'd say we'll be getting day one playability in Proton.

That's good to hear
