When I look at the Steam store, Path of Exile says it’s only supported on windows and mac. But I see people talking about playing it on the (presumably linux) SteamDeck. So… it works on the deck? I don’t have a deck, trying to decide whether to take the leap.

      Fair enough, and I did check out at least a dozen pages, and there’s lots of people saying they play PoE on deck.

      I’m having trouble reconciling it with the Steam store which by all indications would suggest that they do not run on steam. Of the articles I’ve seen so far it wasn’t clear people running PoE (or other “windows” games on the Steam store) were using special launchers, or some of those windows-based decks I heard about (?), or what.

        You launch steam deck -> Press install poe -> Press play -> Poe works.

        First video from googling this explains it.
