Yes, we need more support for Linux and Proton.

I am shocked EA is even thinking about it.

I am shocked EA is even thinking about it.

If there's one thing you can count on, it's EA thinking about the money. They see what the Steamdeck POC has done to the industry, and the Steam Machine - if affordable - can change things in a big way again.

They're trying to get ahead of losing money on BF6 and Apex not being playable on Steam Machine through SteamOS
