        Sure, but they also make mobile games, do you expect hose to play on the switch too…?

            No, a 3ds to switch is a pretty apt comparison about a modern pc to a steam deck actually.

            There is absolutely no reason why anyone would assume this should be optimized for a mobile device. You would be limiting its potential in PC, if they can’t provide the same experience across all devices, they aren’t going to. It’s a competitor shooter for one thing….

            Where am I comparing apples to oranges…? I’m using different approaches to show that not everygame a company designs is going to be playable on all devices, it’s NEVER, been that way. So why would it suddenly change just for this one case…?

                In terms of computer power, a Steam Deck is basically a mid-range laptop. Go buy a Dell Inspiron for about the same price and how does It run CS2?

                How is any of that relevant to a company being able to design games for what they want…?

                But I will address this point. Yes it would limit what they could do to the PC version, look at what happened to coop for BG3 on the series S, sometimes devices just can’t do everything….

                    Where am I reaching?

                    I also never put words in your mouth. I’ve used different methods to describe how companies make games for other hardware all the time.

                    Why should this game be different? Are you going to answer any of my questions or are you just going to continue to deflect with these endless fallacies?

          I’m glad you’re making it apparent that you don’t know what you’re talking about. Sure you can’t compare it to a two thousand dollar PC with top of the line hardware, but it’s plenty capable, affordable and you can take it anywhere. They’re fucking awesome and have made PC gaming accessible to lots of people

            Yes it’s an awesome device and that’s not what was being discussed…

            News flash, companies design games for different systems all the time, why should this one game be any different…?
