    I can run Steam Deck verified games on my Mac? How? (I don’t think I can, I think you just missed that I have a Mac, not a Steam Deck.)

    I didn’t look for Steam Deck verification, I just looked at the OS flags above the price. They have them for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

      Apologies; didn’t read that far when I saw it. But to be fair, your exact quote was “Requires Windows”, not “Requires Windows or Linux”. You’re sort of the odd one out on macs.

        If it fully supported Linux, there would be a Tux (penguin) icon next to the Windows flag on the Steam page. And then I would have said “Requires Windows or Linux,” or I would have worded it differently.

        Yes, I’m the odd one who put his money where his mouth was when Microsoft started to really go downhill. Not many people can say that.

        The game requires windows, just because you’re able to make Linux run it doesn’t mean the game supports it.
