If it weren't for how good the offering is on Gamepass I would just play on Linux.

You can stream gamepass on the steamdeck

I hate the input delay on cloud gaming. It's just not something wish to deal with in action games. I used it on my phone to play persona but killer instinct on Streaming is suffering.

I found it to be barely noticeable on edge for Linux. Of course, it depends on your connection speed...

It's tolerable on a lot of games but anything that requires fast responses can feel pretty rough at times. Anything more chill or turn based runs just fine though!

That's true, but even streaming locally from my series x to stream Deck really degrades the image quality and introduces input delay (which of course could also be caused by my network idk) so I'm not too keen on streaming games
