Maybe, maybe not. But I think people expect a game made by Valve to run on gaming hardware made by Valve, even if it's only for casual playing.
Well it runs - just not as fast as you want. I personally would never want to play those competitive shooters that need pixel perfect aim on a handheld console… but that’s just me.
Yes. Why else did CSGO get controller and gyro support? While Valve did not promise anything in that regard, there was the expectation that CS2 would basically be fully optimized for Deck. Maybe it will still happen. The "final" release is nothing but an open beta.
To add to this, the expectation is because they basically killed off CSGO for CS2 as an upgrade, so it should have the same and more functionalities.
Yes you can still turn on CSGO from settings but it's worthless without servers.
Sure but they haven't cared about the state of their games in ages. Iike I'm all for pushing to get them to fix it and all, but think it's weird that people are surprised. Especially when the vast majority of their focus has been on steam for the last forever
Yeah we should be able to play half life Alyx on the steam deck too!!
Ah yes, I totally expect Nintendo games to play on all their hardware like a 3ds…
How is that the same? This is a PC game running on a device meant to run PC games. Apples to apples
A severely limited device, like a 3ds compared to a switch even….
I'm glad you're making it apparent that you don't know what you're talking about. Sure you can't compare it to a two thousand dollar PC with top of the line hardware, but it's plenty capable, affordable and you can take it anywhere. They're fucking awesome and have made PC gaming accessible to lots of people
Yes it’s an awesome device and that’s not what was being discussed…
News flash, companies design games for different systems all the time, why should this one game be any different…?
You literally just said it's a severely limited device, which it definitely isn't. You've just done a complete 180 with your argument.
Compared to modern PCs… my argument hasn’t changed at all.
