There is even an API in Steam that directly targets the Steam Deck. Steam Deck can be programmatically identified by its API, just like any other console. This is a key factor.
We are not speaking about any random hardware configuration or tablet, we are speaking about a device with software and hardware specifically designed, build, tested, targeted and marketed as a single unit. Exactly what a console is. However, I'm not disregarding its roots of PC. What I am saying is, that Steam Deck does not represent PC "very well"; its its own thing, even compared to other handheld PCs. If the Steam is marketed as a PC, then it won't get the support from the developers.
Steam Deck is its own category, besides general PC. Games need to have different Spec Recommendations for PC and one specific optimized version for Steam Deck. Both are separated.
You're just wrong here, they don't need special versions at all, you're normally just given windows .exe files and told to use proton to make the games work, even
This is good, actually, as it lets you change your settings in-game just like on normal PCs, so if you want more battery life you can turn them down, or if you're plugged in you can turn them up
Your idea there is just bad and wrong, sorry
No, and I explained multiple times why. You just keep ignoring what I wrote and take things out of context without having an understanding of the statement. It's not "my idea", but I'm done with stupidity.
Ok but you're just factually wrong, a special version of games is not needed for the steam deck, it uses the PC version of the game
Where did I say a special version of games is needed??? I'm well aware of what and how the Steam Deck, its operating system and underlying technologies work. I didn't say it NEEDS a special version.
