Almost all the non working games are due to anti cheat or are online only games. Two aren’t anti cheat, but also aren’t games. In other words there’s only like 3 games that are single player that don’t work.

I also think it’s disingenuous to say they don’t work on steam deck, as installing windows would solve the issue
It’s a Linux issue overall and that if I was a betting man I’d say we’re just a handful of years away from that being solved.

Depends. I don’t know if kernel anticheats will ever work, but I also would refuse to install any so it doesn’t really matter.

I’d argue it’s a developer issue, since they’re the ones refusing to support Linux

Installing windows is lame and ruins the console like experience that helps make deck popular. Also, the anti cheat won’t be solved until Linux anti cheat is used by the games and no sooner. That won’t happen until a lot more people are on Linux.
