JTQuincy: It appears the folks at Valve have changed how Steam authentication works and it may be a lot of work to get it working in Galaxy again.
There is at least one dev working on it that I can see. Hopefully, they can find an answer.
yep steam changed to an extremely annoying authentication method for desktops, altjough the deck does NOT use that method and they cannot rely on linking to desktops to verify, so there must be a way to workaround
some of the other linkages 3rd are also apparently dead...
effectively galaxy is as much of a dead end as I thought that it would be and since I have a deck better to just buy through steam now anyways, the experiennce is just so much better, e.g. trying to get the og witcher to run ok from gog version is a complete and total nightmare...
