Another chance to fill up your backlog of games? How about a couple of classics if you don't already own them. The Plaion: The Hits Humble Bundle has various Red Faction and Saints Row games.
As usual I will give you easy to read compatibility for Steam Deck and Desktop Linux via Deck Verified, ProtonDB and Native Linux listings. Each is also a Steam link to grab more info if you need before purchasing.
Included in the bundle are:
Red Faction - 
Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
Red Faction II - Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered - Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
Red Faction: Armageddon - 
Steam Deck Unsupported / ProtonDB Gold
+ the Path to War DLC
Saints Row 2 - Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Gold
Saints Row: The Third - Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Silver
Saints Row: The Third Remastered - Steam Deck Unsupported / ProtonDB Platinum
ProtonDB reports show it actually runs fine on Steam Deck
Saints Row: Gat out of Hell - 
Steam Deck Unrated / ProtonDB Bronze
Saints Row IV: Re-Elected - Steam Deck Playable / ProtonDB Silver
Some of the older Saints Row games do have Native Linux versions, but they're really old, and you'll be better off just running them in Proton.
Check out the full bundle for more info.
Be sure to also check out the Humble Heroines Bundle with A Plague Tale: Innocence, Chorus and more.

Quoting: fenglengshunIn that case, why not take the guarantee, and then use some of that money to do marketing campaign when it's closer to Steam release?It would be interesting to know then what the typical price of such games is when it finally makes it to Steam. Games drop price so quickly these days. I'd wager that whatever marketing they could do with the Epic cash wouldn't be enough to offset the loss.
Even if hypothetically (because the publisher was crazy) a game did come out on Steam 6 months late, and was still full price, and I still really wanted it (a lot of ifs) there's no way in hell I wouldn't be waiting for a sale if I'd already been forced to wait that long.

I've always found it a bit weird that people feel the need to publicly dunk on a game they don't like. Is it just for social media clout? There are tons of games I don't like, but I don't go around saying, "No Dark Souls. Good!" or "No GTA V. Good!" It just seems a bit odd.
Reasoning could be the same for publicly saying you like a game.
Why is it bad to say you don't like a game but it's good to say you like another one?
At the end of the day, both are unsolicited opinions for the rest of us reading them.
No, it's really not. Saying you don't like something and stating it as an opinion is fine. Stating you're glad people won't be able to buy a game in a bundle seems a bit more hostile. If someone could get a discount on a game I don't like, I'd still be happy for them.
When that latest Saints Row game came out, there were people actively trying to cut it down and trying to convince people not to play it like they were on some kind of righteous crusade. it's a big much.
While I agree it's too much, the same happens when a nice game comes out and you see so many people trying to convince you to play the game because it's so good you have to. Marketing is pretty much this. Someone trying to make you buy something instead of letting you decide about it by yourself.
I'm just trying to say that people trying to convince you to do something instead of letting you decide is basically how everything works. And it seems curious to me that we only point it out when they actively try to convince us to NOT do something.
