Another big milestone has been reached by Valve with their handheld Linux gaming PC, with the Steam Deck hitting 17,000 games rated playable or verified.
Plus many more games work with minor tweaks or through emulators.
Devs have zero say about Valve’s “verified” checkmark. You can make a perfect game and tune it for the Deck, and wait forever for Valve to bless it. Or you can put out AAA crap that barely gets 10fps on a GodBox and is loaded down with launchers and NTKERNL.DLL anticheat, and gaben will give it a ✅ months before release.
The verified certification program is going just great.

Maybe there are some games with 1 rating which is done by their developer.
Although that might only work for a few sales.
