Why not ride streams coat-tails and switch to arch?

Or Debian. It still supports MIPS64 officially and 68K unofficially. x86 isn't going anywhere for a long time.

I'd not really paid attnetion until this thread and assumed it was an Arch derivative becase of Steam OS. TIL

The tiny bit of gaming I do is in my main install is LMDE using Steam, it works fine.

I went from Windows to arch after waiting for a while for steam to release the desktop os. No real problems gaming aside from anti-cheat.
