Honestly just shows how dialed in the steam deck is, it's why I won't ever buy one of their competitors.
I don't understand how so many competitors are just making rhe most obvious, braindead mistakes. Who the fuck thought using Windows was a good idea?!?
You're right, of course. But there's still a few games that don't run on Steam Deck (looking at you, Henteko Doujin), that run fine in Windows. I'm able to play these games on my Ayn Loki Zero with Win 11 install, via Steam. Of course, I'm talking about playing indie shmups on a US $250 device, so I'm a bit of a niche case. So... situationally it's a good-ish idea? For, like, three people? Not enough people to make a product worth selling, anyway.
