MODERATORS
Yes I understand how the Steam Deck and verified ratings work, but thanks for the explanation.
Well based on your comment, it seemed as thought you didn't.
How so?
I went to hit "edit" and accidentally deleted my comment. Lol derp.
What I said was:
You are criticizing the verification system by comparing it to ProtonDB which, again, is a different thing.
Steam's verification isn't "inaccurate," it just denotes which games will give you the "console experience" right out of the box. And for that purpose, it does just fine. Crowdsourcing something like that would not be a good way for Valve to accomplish its goals.
Different in some ways but serves the same purpose.
Yes it is.
Yes it would.
Wow, great arguments 🙄
I don't know what else you expect me to say.
If Steam declares a game is "unsupported" but it runs perfectly fine, I don't know what other way to describe that than "inaccurate".
Crowdsourcing is obviously far more effective if you simply look at the ratings on SteamDB.
