After digging through Steam reviews I found that the game breaks saves everytime after a major update, it was this way in Early Access too. I won't be buying it until they fix this problem. Don't fancy coming back to the game after 6 months just to see my entire progress wiped
Surprisingly, Valve rated Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and Rainbow Six Siege as Steam Deck Playable

The Verified system desperately needs a big overhaul. It is completely unclear how they arrive at one of 3 categories, they should publish some guidelines on what 'Verified' means exactly and what a game needs to support to get it. And then stick to those guidelines, because right now it's just one big mess.
Right now the rating is extremely inconsistent, and this leads to issues like games using the same engine and performing basically the same (like Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster & Horizon Forbidden West) to getting different ratings. One is verified, the other is Unsupported. This should not be able to happen!
They should also be adding more information to the test results, but at minimum the date it was tested, and the used Proton version. Proton gets better all the time and this system clearly does not reflect that at all. So many games are 'Unsupported' despite working fine, and this would at least draw attention to the fact that the test results are old.
Then, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD add more reasoning to why a game is 'Unsupported'. Mostly they just say 'Valve is still working on adding support for this' which is absolutely 0 information that is helpful in any way. As a customer I want to know what doesnt work, so I can decide on a purchase and whether I will enjoy it despite being Unsupported.
Then if the rating changes because of anticheat being added/changed or something else that breaks the game in a significant way on Linux, it should be a guaranteed refund no questions asked.
These issues really need to be solved before bringing SteamOS to more devices.
*end of rant*

Control Ultimate Edition is adding HDR, ultrawide, FOV scaling, updated DLSS and DLAA

It's a shame that they still haven't added any.

Is there any FSR support in Control? Not much use for DLSS, on my Steam Deck... Thinking about it, maybe with Decky-Framegen?No unfortunately not, but you can specify a lower rendering resolution than the output so it basically works like FSR.

Yeah, stuff like 4K textures which realistically you would never use on SD because it doesn't have enough VRAM for that. This is really nice to see and more devs should do this.
