And if there is a need to write text, it has to pop up the in screen keyboard automatically. Which afaik means “you have to implement the Steam Input API”, unless there is some hacky workaround for that. But in any case, it’s something the dev has to do specifically for Deck support, it doesn’t just happen.

Steam did try to hack Wine’s handling of windows textboxes to automatically trigger the OSK. I’m not sure if they gave up there (or I got lucky in disabling it), but it suuucked. It’s very easy to get into fights with that auto-popup, particularly if you’re trying to do wine-tweaking tasks.

Elder scrolls online works perfectly , you just have to tap touchscreen to play on the launcher then close the launcher.

Also UI has to look good at either 720p or 1280x800. A lot of modern games don’t do that well at low res.
