This is gaming now. Get used to only playing retro games my friend.

People be like:
Steam deck isn't strong enough, because it cannot max Cyberpunk.
Bruh, I am playing 10 year old games there. And you won't be playing AAA shit either. And you know it.
@e @alyx @Jim @TheMaskettaMan
Sorry, but do you understand what Steam Deck is?
@e @alyx @Jim @TheMaskettaMan
Then you should know, that Steam deck CAN run PC games.
Your question is weird at best.
This was true up to the Steam Deck's launch. Welcome to the new PC paradigm.

Steam deck is literally a PC.
I seriously don't get why do people not get the concept.
And yeah, I do have a big one to play real games on. (like factorio for example) But they are both PCs with common library and even shared saves.
For example, I play MonsterHunter Rise on BOTH depending on how I feel at the moment.

Sorry, I haven't tried.

But to answer, the deck is as powerful as modern consoles, so unless the game is known for breaking GPUs, it should be fine.
Also, the game is verified.

I think people are doing the same distinction between desktop PC and Deck as they do between desktop and laptop.
They're all a x86 compatible computers, but you still have different expectations when it comes to performance between all the 3. And because of the Deck's size, people automatically think of it much less than even a laptop. But in reality it is just a laptop without a dedicated GPU. And I think people are used to the idea of integrated GPUs being shit, but in reality they've grown quite capable, especially on the AMD side.
I've got an AMD laptop myself, and purposefully disabling it's dedicated GPU and trying games on it's integrated one has been a fun hobby for me lately.
@alyx @anornymorse @e @Jim @TheMaskettaMan
Yeah, I can understand that.
While I have seen some amazing laptops, I have also seen one of my laptop get so slowed down, it could no longer handle original counter strike.
(I have no idea what happened, and I don't care much to find out)
@alyx @anornymorse @e @Jim @TheMaskettaMan
You know what?
I think I get it now, why people don't trust the deck.
Anyone that asks me for advice on a midrange computer to buy, I tell them "Buy a Steam deck, dock, and 1080p monitor". I wasn't doing that a year ago.
