What if game is not on steam and it's online game that I'll get banned if I use 3rd party client?

That's becoming less and less common these days, thankfully. Especially since the Steam Deck, gaming on Linux is just becoming better and better.

Sure, but still multiplayer games that are not on steam and have some sort of anticheat or other stuff like that are unlikely to show up on deck. Unless company steps in and release version for steam deck/Linux (which they don't cause it's probably a lot of work for minimal returns), you have to play it on windows. At least I can dual boot on my deck to play those games.

Still common enough for plenty of people to be put off by it

Getting banned is still common?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah, I might've misread. I thought the comment I replied to was just about anticheat support in general

What online game do you want to play besides maybe Counter Strike?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Genshin Impact. I used to play league of legends but not anymore.
