That’s my point. This is a quote from the Steam Deck website:
We partnered with AMD to create Steam Deck’s custom APU, optimized for handheld gaming. It is a Zen 2 + RDNA 2 powerhouse, delivering more than enough performance to run the latest AAA games in a very efficient power envelope.
If I read that and bought a Steam Deck, then found out that it can’t run a new release smoothly, I wouldn’t be very happy.
It’s all well and good having a compatibility list for released games, but their marketing makes it sound like it can play anything.
