I'd imagine most devs/publishers do not actually support Deck/Linux. It's nice when they do, though.
This seems like more of a situation where they, I guess, tested on the Deck and found it doesn't run well enough to be considered playable. I see no problems here, though perhaps an argument could be made about optimization.
At least it sounds like they aren't breaking Deck/Linux support on purpose.
At this point, I'd be happy with a guarantee that the publisher won't break games with an anticheat or launcher in the future so I can at least look at ProtonDB before buying a game. If there's a guarantee in place, I'd be willing to take my chances that a random update might accidently break compatibility. (No official support for Deck/Linux)
