Wife said to me this morning “Running Windows games like that seems unnatural” So of course immediately generated this meme.
Wait until she hears about the wonderful world of emulators.
Why do I have to click this box? Why isn’t the default option. I just want to click on a Windows game and then install. I’m I alone on this?
You can enable such an option in the settings
There’s no way to set it as default completely. You can set it as default for titles that Valve hasn’t explicitly overriden, but if Valve decides that a certain game works with Proton 8 or Hotfix, it will automatically install those. I really wish there was a way to force Experimental in all cases.
thats what I did. I just check steam deck compatibility before hitting install
I would guess to help excuse [compatibility] errors. Make you cognizant of the experimental nature, perhaps head you off before complaining to the developers.
I have a lot of respect for Valve for making Steam have such good Linux compatibility. I still haven’t found a game I couldn’t run (though I don’t play a ton of games).
I actually had to downgrade proton for dragon’s dogma recently. Black screen on the 8+ versions.
I had to downgrade it to play anything on my ultrawide, some really weird stuff happening in 9.0 with multiple monitors. It can’t detect mouse input on the right 1/3 of my screen. Very glad they let us choose versions
