I avoid any and all Capcom games due to their anti-consumer and anti-modding stance, like adding DRM to a 10 year old game to limit modding. That was an ass move. And Monster Hunter: Wilds could run much better without the over-intrusive DRM they added to it.

Isn't the Deck GPU way too weak to render at this high resolution though?

It is great to see something other than the first-party controllers get Steam Input support! Makes them instantly more viable for Steam Deck. While I would not buy this particular one (stick placement is wrong and tbh I'm still 100% satisfied with my Dualsense) I'm excited for what the future brings.

I see them, so must be a regional thing. I guess it could be blocked in Germany.That's weird, when I bought the bundle on 23rd of April, I still got all 3 Wolfenstein games. Now 2 games are missing but the bundle costs the same. That's less game for more money:sad:

I normally try to avoid bundles because I tend to spend money on those while never actually playing the majority of games. Silly me!
But this bundle I just had to buy, it's so damn good! I started with Doom Eternal and I'm already loving it! Such a great game. Performance is brutal and that soundtrack is just WOW.
Btw you don't need a Bethesda account to play DE, just launch it with Steam in Offline mode.

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*
