From reading about the performance, sounds like it probably should have been rated “playable” instead of verified.
That said, this is pretty cool because this was one of those games that was absolutely unplayable on deck at release.
This is also encouraging for our chances of having Doom Dark Ages be playable since I think they’re using the same engine. Doom games are usually optimized really well, so I’m hoping it will run better than this.
My pc doesn’t meet requirements Ryzen 5 1500x, RX580, how does the steam run it well?
Lower resolution (800p or 720p) + 30fps target makes a lot of games run acceptably on the Deck. Blurry/low graphics are also a lot more acceptable on a smaller screen.
It’s also worth noting that although very limited, the Steam Deck does actually support hardware accelerated ray tracing.

If we continue the current trend, we could successfully transition to e-ink screens without any noticable performance penalty in less than a decade. The future is exciting!

30fps isn’t even that bad.

Right?
I get it, more frames more better, and I agree.
But I don’t expect the steam deck to be a super performance machine. And personally, I am not that affected by 30fps. Below 30 it does start to bother me, and above 30 is significantly smoother.
I’m currently playing through HFW, and I can average about 40, it drops to 30 at times, and occasionally dips below, but by and large I’m very happy with it.
