I see your point about the time it would take to verify the catalog, but there’s plenty of games that are ancient, or just don’t have the player base to justify the testing. In my steam library is Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith. Last updated for at best windows 98, and I doubt it still has the player base to justify a ton of work to verify.
Steam Deck
A place to discuss and support all things Steam Deck.
Replacement for r/steamdeck_linux.
As Lemmy doesn't have flairs yet, you can use these prefixes to indicate what type of post you have made, eg:
[Flair] My post title
The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
- Follow the rules of Sopuli
- Posts must be related to the Steam Deck in an obvious way.
- No piracy, there are other communities for that.
- Discussion of emulators are allowed, but no discussion on how to illegally acquire ROMs.
- This is a place of civil discussion, no trolling.
- Have fun.
I could see valve moving to a telemetry/user feedback based system in the future - e.g 78% of users who ran this on a steam deck played for more than x hours and didn't crash
That would be great and then valve can load into the more problematic levels to test compatibility and to bug fix proton.
