Can I play Origin games on Steam Deck?
Short answer: Yes, but it's not as straightforward as Steam games. You need to jump through some hoops like installing Origin via compatibility layers or switching to desktop mode and installing Windows.

Absolutely! You can play Origin games on the Steam Deck, but it requires a bit of a workaround. You'll need to install Origin on your Steam Deck through Steam's compatibility tool, Proton, or by using the Deck's desktop mode to install Windows. Once Origin is up and running, you can download and play your Origin games just like on a regular PC!
Honestly, if you're all about that seamless experience, sticking to games directly available on Steam might be your best bet. But if you're up for a little adventure (and maybe some troubleshooting), diving into Origin's library on your Steam Deck can totally work!
