I’m thinking about getting a handheld as I’m spending more time away from my house and PC. I don’t want to get buy hundreds of dollars of games to go with it.
3ds xl / switch / Steam deck / Legion?
There seems a lot of options and all have plenty of games to them. Is there an obvious choice that I’m not aware of?
Thanks.
Can confirm for the Steam Deck! Not that it supports it explicitly, but Valve doesn’t really seem to care what you do with your hardware lol.
The only limitations are that it’s Linux, so you might run into some trouble with Denuvo/Hypervisor and stuff like that. HV cracks allegedly work on Linux now, but I haven’t tried it yet.
It’s easier on Linux than it is on Windows, and also safer too.
Good to know it’s easier! I assumed it’d be safer because Linux generally is lol. Presumably because Denuvo is kernel-level and Linux doesn’t let it fuck about with the kernel or something like that?
Nah Denuvo isn’t kernel level, at least not at the moment. The method used on Linux operates entirely in userland using a custom proton build and the cpuid fault instruction. On older systems that don’t support cpuid faulting they do use a kernel module, but this kernel module is much simpler than the Windows HV, it only emulates cpuid faulting and doesn’t do anything else.
