I tried building a Steam box with the bootleg version of SteamOS from the deck... Can't remember the name of the distro. Steam Games ran great for the most part, but getting Epic, EA and Ubisoft to work was a nightmare. If Linux can get that sorted, I'd never use Windows again.

I want able to get it to work unfortunately. This was a few years ago though.

I have really tried getting epic to work, but both ea and Ubisoft launchers work quite well now through Lutris

Strange, was it recently?? My Epic install have been working for years (installed again a few times)

I just realized that I missed a word. I have not tried getting epic to work. Sorry for the confusion ๐Ÿ˜…
