Interesting, hadn't seen this quirk in my research. Thanks for sharing.
I may be willing to wipe my partitions clean and do a fresh W10 install, but there would need to be a video guide from Bald Sealion or others.
Honestly the more and more I look into this mess, as you rightfully put it, it's not worth it for 1 game.
Yeah I figured this is the end of the rope for Steam Deck Secure Boot. I bumped the Steam post that the creator of the GitHub guide made to see if things have changed since 2022/2023, but I'm not betting on it.
Honestly if I go through with any troubleshooting to fix Secure Boot, it just means I'll be bending the knee to EA who are a shit company in the first place. I'd rather boycott one of their games for these shitty practices and play some of the older BF games that at least still have server browsers and don't require Secure Boot (yet).
Risks absolutely outweigh the rewards on this one, 100%. Hate to see so many EA and M$ shills out there defending all this
