Steam deck verified sucks because it tells you if it will run well on the deck, but doesn’t tell you if it’ll play well on the deck. If a game doesn’t have controller support then I’m not interested.
To be verified the game has to have controller support.
That said, thanks to steam input and community control profiles it’s not hard to have a good experience on titles just rated “playable” even if they lack controller support.
