What's the benefit of the os vs say steam os?
@mesamunefire @themadcodger in tunisia at least, the number one way to play games is:-through piracy (I hate piracy but if you are born in tunisia then it is very very hard to pay for anything virtual like games) -via launchers like Battle.net for HS -via custom .exe like for Project Celeste.. in short Steam is not the only way to get games, Steam OS and by consequence the Steamdeck is not even officialy on sale in tunisia anywhere and going to desktop mode requires intellect which is not common
Interesting. Yeah I can see that being an issue.
I've heard it can be hard to get a steam deck or steam deck adjacent machines outside official stores.
