From a performance and technical perspective this is incredible. Well done!

It will never happen, but my dream is for the Asahi devs, Valve, and Apple to all get together to build out a cross-platform Proton to emulate and play games built for Windows on both x86 and ARM hardware running Linux.

A Steam Deck with the performance and power efficiency of an M-series ARM chip and the entire library of games that run on Proton is just...dreamy.

A lot of stuff like this shows up, they also have a fork of waydroid and box64. I think a lot of them are projects and a lot of them are just devs with a lot of agency who share the dream

Steam Deck was made possible by their ongoing efforts to enable the play of most of their games catalog on any hardware platform that is computationally capable of running them, regardless of OS or architecture.

The end game for Valve isn't Steam Deck 2 or 3 (which is statistically impossible for Valve to produce), but for Steam to be on everything.

What do you mean Steam Deck 2 or 3 would be impossible?

Steamdeck 3 being statistically impossible is a joke about Valve having an aversion to releasing a #3 of anything.

Half life 1, 2… hm.

Ok we’ll make three HL2 episodes to follow that up.

Ep I. Ep II. Uhhhh… and let’s stop there, just like forever I guess.

Portal 1. Portal 2.

Left4dead. L4D2.

Team Fortress. TF2.

Counterstrike. CS2. Oh shit we’re releasing a third one, we might have to use the number three finally, oh no… I’ve got it: CS:Go!
