I used it yesterday, I had to jump through hoops just to launch a game. If it “just works now” I shouldn’t have to switch proton versions.

Ah, epic, the storefront that barely works on Linux. And steam, which on Linux ships with proton that may or may not work, why? Dunno 🤷♂️
I’d rather have something that works out of the box.

Less games? No, pretty much every popular third party game is on it.

It’s a teaser for a game that never came out, I’m pretty sure he had complications with studios. What’s the point of keeping a short demo of a game that was canceled?

It’s all relative.
For me, the price of a base steam machine is $1,509 CAD plus tax.
Even then, they’re constantly changing their wording (“delivers 4k60fps” to “up to 4k60fps”), and real world testing it doesn’t make sense for me to consider this.
The Switch 2 is more than half the price ($629 CAD without the bundle) and has subjectively better price to performance plus it can be docked: it’s basically a steam deck and steam machine in one console.
We do that with physical media all the time, dont we? If I finish a game and for some reason I’m able to get my money back, I’ll get my damn money back.
