The Steam Deck is trying to make Linux gaming more hassle-free, but it's not like we've reached that stage yet. Still, we're taking steps.
I have high hopes for the future. It's just not quite there yet.
I have also encountered games that needed tweaking (like changing settings in an .ini file that weren't visible in the game's menu) to run in an acceptable way on windows. Does this mean that Windows is 'not quite there yet', or is the game to blame?
Sure, but it's not impossible to play any Blizzard games because the launcher login page is broken like it is on Linux. Blaming the game will only get you so far when so many games just don't work and devs don't care.
