MODERATORS
It's an attempt at a quick cash grab by some publisher, abusing the LOTR IP and it's current resurgence in popularity. Epic Games only too. I wouldn't be surprised to hear later down the line how the devs have been on crunch to get a game out in a ridiculously short amount of time.
Epic store only is a dealbreaker, especially in the age of the Steam Deck
Is it possible to play EGS games on steam deck?
Yes, but not as seamless. You basically add the epic store as a 'game'
Not at all, you can use Heroic launcher to add games individually
It is. And you can choose if you want to use the Epic launcher or not as well.
You can play both Epic and GOG games on the Steam Deck, and you can do it with or without the Epic and GOG launchers. Your choice. I did so today, in fact.
The Steam Deck runs Linux. That means anything that runs on Linux, and most things that run on Windows or Android can be run. Including Windows-only software.
Idk why people act in this day and age like the Steam Deck is some crippled device. Unless your desktop runs Linux, your Steam Deck can run more things than it can.
Please don't misunderstand their criticism. It's not criticism of the Steam Deck, but of Epic as a company. Epic's store is the crippled thing, not the Steam Deck.
Yeah, we can work around it, as customers. We should not have to.
