Playing Helldivers 2. My brother on the desktop on the living room TV. Me on the SteamDeck on the couch next to him. Playing co-op together.

    I’m so happy Valve pushed the Steam deck the way they did. Didn’t expect many games, let alone, Helldivers 2 to run on Linux but it runs first try. No tinkering, nothing.

      Yeah it doesn’t run great and I won’t be doing it often (I don’t like playing shooters with controllers anyway) but worked well enough for this particular use-case.

      The desktop was Linux also 😃

      E: to be clear, it ran very smooth at ~55FPS, with no frame drops, but with lots of jaggies. Icons are illegible even on my 75" TV.
