On the 1st page I found exactly one game that I'd maybe want to play, but not like I couldn't live without it. None on page 2 and one game again on page 3. Every single game I wanted to play on the Deck works (true, some of them needed some tinkering).
Remember, I said the solution is simple for me. Generally the games that don't work are not really my cup of tea, like online games and generally stuff that's more cash-grab than a game. There are few games that would make me consider getting Windows to play, but luckily all of those work well. I still wouldn't install Windows on the Deck, though, I'd probably stream it from some PC.
Yeah, I dunno if that list was supposed to be convincing lol... Most of the games on there are total "games as a service" garbage.
Every single one of these games looks like trash. Like 4 out of 5 (on page 1 at least) of the games on the list are games I've only heard about from YouTube advertisements that I didn't use SponsorBlock on.
Not very convincing.
The Call of Duty franchise is one of the biggest games going. PUBG Battlegrounds is huge, so is Destiny 2.
Dude there’s like, maybe twenty real games in that pile. Most of which I wouldn’t want to play on my steam deck anyways, not that I’ve ever wanted to play a battlefield game, but I sure don’t want to try and aim with a controller.
Gyro-assisted aiming is actually quite effective.
Thst's not to say anything about those games though.
