Quoting: Eike
Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoMy big concern about this are the WMV and MP4 videos used in a lot of videos.

For example, I just confirmed that the transcoding issue of Marcus intro video from the Borderlands 3 wasn't fixed yet:
The original mp4 file has eight audio tracks, meanwhile the transcoded version only has english audio and that is unacceptable.

It seems Valve don't give a shit about this specific issue..
Has it been reported on GitHub?
Yes, by me [External Link].
And without an official answer.

What I am trying to say is that Proton, the blood in the veins of the SteamDeck, is not ready.

This will be a megafail if SteamDeck can not run properly most of the games in the Steam catalogue.
Remember the Steam Machines fiasco.

Nobody will buy this for just 100 or 200 supported games.

Quoting: kibasnowpawi still feel like lutris is a better options here or if you somehow can miss mass this two.
Lutris is useful when you have an specific game install script, but it lacks of a default generic script template for to use when a game or app doesn't have an specific install script...
I can't entirely agree because I install all my games without a script, and all my steam games are installed in wine, not native steam, but Steam EXE inside wine using lutris to download and install the game for me with the Steam for Windows runner. I can get most games up and running with no problem, even games like Resident evil Revelation and BLUE REFLECTION run as good as on native steam, and i don't have to worry about bit32 and proton 5.0 to make them work as long WMP 11 is installed.

I am not talking about Steam games, I talk about games I have on DVD or Downloaded...
To Install Wolfenstein 2009 from a DVD (non-steam) was a pain in the ass.

Usage experience must be "Click game installer.exe file, Install game & Play"
