Fair points. Controllers work in big picture mode, but I get what you're saying. But on the other hand, the Steamdeck and Proton have done a lot for making Linux gaming more accessible.

Oh, I was criticizing other stores.

The offerings of Origin, UPlay, EGS, and Battle.net pale in comparison to what Steam makes available to customers. And out of those, the only one that isn't a heaping dumpster fire is Battle.net–which actually put effort into its UX and design.

Oh, i complete misread your comment. Sorry! I see that now. Steam and GOG are the only stores I have, I don't play a lot of new games.
