Were you hoping to play through the METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.1 that just launched on Steam? Well, currently you won't be able to on Steam Deck and desktop Linux as it's quite broken.
They’re the same ports that Bluepoint put out last console generation before Sony bought them, and those ports were good enough for me. In all likelihood, Bluepoint is under no obligation to assist any further, and the fact that these ports are working exactly as well as that last collection did for everyone outside of Linux is more than I was expecting out of Konami. Compared to the previous PC releases of MGS1 and 2, or going through the hassle of emulating these things, I’ll still take the collection of some of my favorite games ever, once Proton is working anyway. Especially of interest to me is if Volume 2 includes MGS4, because that would be the first time it’s been free from PS3, and emulation for it still isn’t great.
They were very good ports for the PS3 and 360. But Konami have just taken that and popped them on the marketplace without much in the way of work to make them suitable for PC players. Sure, it’s great to finally have them available on PC, but if you’re gonna put such little work in, the price they’re asking isn’t justified.
