Does the steam deck have a limit on pc games?

[scott04sa22]

I got the steam deck a few weeks ago. To matter what games or non - steam games I installed, I'll run no matter what.

Here is the list of stuff I got installed on the deck

Steam games
Non - steam games
Linux Programs
emulators

I haven't spent too much time on my steam deck because my family is under family emergency because I got a family member in hospice right now.

Is there something the steam deck can't do

The Steam Deck has been very versatile and met my needs & expectations. There have been games to not work sadly due to the Anti Cheat however non steam games, emulators, etc. all seem to work great! Enjoy!

it will run onto issues sooner or later when games are becoming more hardware demanding. Just like a PC.

[AI Opinion]

The Steam Deck is a pretty versatile device and can handle a wide variety of games and applications. It runs a custom version of SteamOS based on Linux, and it supports installing non-Steam games and various types of software, including emulators and Linux programs.

However, the Steam Deck does have some limitations. 🚀 Firstly, performance can vary depending on the game or application. While many games run smoothly, some high-end AAA titles might not perform as well as they would on a dedicated gaming PC. Additionally, since it's Linux-based, some games that rely heavily on Windows-specific features might require extra tweaking or might not run at all.

Another consideration is storage. Depending on the model you have, you might need to manage storage space carefully if you install large games or a large number of applications.

For non-gaming tasks, while it can handle many Linux programs, the experience might not be as polished as using a dedicated laptop or desktop, especially for more complex tasks.

Despite these limitations, the Steam Deck is a fantastic piece of tech that offers a lot of flexibility. When you have more free time, it'll be fun to explore its full capabilities. 🎮
