To do that, simply find the “System” category in the Actions List, and drag the “Open” action into an empty slot. Probably the simplest and most used function in Stream Deck, is creating shortcuts to your most used software, games and files. It’s not going to be good for traditional PC game genres like MMORPGs, RTS, etc.How to Execute Programs & Files in Stream Deck It’s designed for FPS, racing, action, and indie games. This Steam Deck device seems more oriented towards being a replacement for mid-tier/last gen consoles and to rival the nintendo switch as a casual handheld device. If you want a mobile device to play WOW, or any other MMORPG on, get the best laptop you can afford and be done with it, even then you will be compromising versus a standard desktop PC. The interface was also really designed to scales well on traditional sized monitors/screens and would end up being really cluttered if downsized to fit a handheld screen.
WOW was built with keyboards and mouse controls in mind and has too many features/skills/etc to work with a controller set up. Even Steam Machines weren’t - and those were suppose to be desktop PC replacements. Personally I don’t see the Steam Deck becoming a viable option for playing WOW or most MMORPGS really. So while this all might change over time - I doubt it will ever be a good platform for WOW. SteamOS also uses software called Proton(which is open source software built on top of Wine) to allow many Window’s “only” games to be played on SteamOS… but from what I have read this Proton software does not work with any kind of online game that has anti-cheat software and I do not see World of Warcraft listed under their supported games. So while Valve has announced you can theoretically install Windows on the Steam Deck they don’t recommend it and I am highly doubtful they will offer first party driver support for Windows for a device they are using to promote their SteamOS ecosystem. I know people can use Wine, but I’m not sure about it’s state these days and even if it could run WoW, it would probably be at half the frame rate of an equal device running native Windows.Īdditionally the Steam Deck has been confirmed to have a custom CPU+GPU(and possibly other custom hardware) that will require custom drivers that will likely not exist for Windows. WoW is a DX12 engine game (Even the DX11 option basically uses the same DX12 channels.
It’s going to be using their SteamOS aka Linux, so probably not all that well.
