Yeah, it also puts off people like me who are crap at games but still want to enjoy them. I am in my 50s and missed a couple decades of gaming. Recently got a steam deck and been trying to catch up. Recently finished bioshock! And I'm about halfway through doom 2016, enjoying it a lot. But I know I'm shit, I'm playing on little bitch difficulty and I still got stuck on a boss for two frustrating weeks.
My point is that some of their market is going to be people like me who don't have time to put hundreds of hours into learning the mechanics but just want to have fun for an hour here or there and blow up some monsters.
Absolutely, I can relate. How well does Doom 2016 run on the steam deck ?
I've not played it on another platform for comparison but it seems to run great.
