Really? The last few times I've tried (granted it was a year or more ago) I got like 15 FPS on a heavy modlist running on my desktop, which had a GTX 2080 and was running Arch, btw. Trying to get MO2 to launch the Linux version of Skyrim running via Steam/Proton and not the Windows version of Steam running through WINE was a fun mess to deal with. Once all that was handled, then half of the modding programs (xEdit, Nemesis, BodySlide, etc...) didn't work with MO2s virtual FS. It was just way too many layers of abstraction to deal with 🤯

    Yes, really haha. I don’t think I would consider the mod list I used heavy, at least not graphically. I didn’t use any of those programs you mentioned.

    I recall using some sort of script that installed MO2 and handled all of this (at least for the Steam Deck).

    Either way, I hope their new cross-platform launcher works out well.

    Nice, thanks I'll give it a try again because Windows 10 is really pissing me off regarding how practically anything that you used to be able to easily disable now requires one or multiple registry hacks that may or may not work anymore.

    I totally understand you not giving all that a try because while it is a handheld Linux PC, it's probably more of a pain in the ass to use on that screen and with the standard input (obviously docking it would solve these issues) than it's worth. I just keep Windows on my Desktop to play a few games, my home server is my workhorse and I have a Linux laptop that work gave me (literally, they laid me off and never asked for it back).
