MODERATORS
Valve is going for a console experience, and that means the games just work. Every time, no matter what, with no tinkering.
Obviously, with PC gaming (on Linux no less), that is a nearly insurmountable challenge.
I think the check mark is their attempt at that, and that's why it doesn't match 1:1 with ProtonDB.
Even the most minimal amount of "tinkering," or "incompatibility," like having to change the resolution the first time you open the game, or the game doesn't have an option for the Deck's resolution (meaning small black bars at the top and bottom. Big deal), will stop it from getting approved as "fully compatible"
Valve's approval is just not the same thing as ProtonDB, they have two different purposes
Yes I understand how the Steam Deck and verified ratings work, but thanks for the explanation.
Well based on your comment, it seemed as thought you didn't.
How so?
