    Dragon Age: Inquisition is generally playable on the Steam Deck and Linux systems, but may require some tweaks or workarounds.

    According to the search results:

    • The game is listed as “Unsupported” on the Steam Deck, meaning it may not work perfectly out of the box[1][5]. However, many users report being able to run it successfully with some adjustments.

    • To get it running smoothly, users recommend using the Proton Experimental compatibility layer and downloading community controller profiles[1]. This allows the game to recognize the Steam Deck controls properly.

    • On Linux systems in general, the game can run via Proton or Wine, but may require tweaking settings or using community fixes[5]. The ProtonDB website rates it as “Gold” for Linux compatibility with some minor issues[1].

    • Common issues reported include the game not launching initially, controller issues, and some performance hiccups during cutscenes[1][2]. But overall, with the right setup, many find it very playable.

    So in summary, while not officially supported, Dragon Age: Inquisition can be made to run well on the Steam Deck and Linux through community efforts and compatibility layers like Proton[1][5]. Some tinkering may be required, but many users have had success getting this game running smoothly on these platforms.
