Devs targeting Steam Deck Verified sets a bar for performance that ends up including other PCs with integrated graphics or those with older graphics cards (up to ~10 years)
By extended the usable life of older gaming hardware, It’s even a win from an environmental point of view.

I’m willing to bet that without the Deck, most AAA games would have already jumped to requiring roughly PS5-level PC hardware now that last gen consoles are effectively dead.
UE5 on the Deck might not be pretty, but making it run at all on it lowers the minimum requirements of a game tremendously.
