I used to be a frame rate snob but owning a Steam Deck has made me realise the error of my ways (www.pcgamer.com)

Now that they don't have to optimize for last gen console hardware anymore, that's going to be even more rare for any triple-A game. Even a well optimized PS5 game is going to seriously struggle to run on the Deck as even if you reduce the graphical setting, the PS5 essentially has an 8 core version of the 4 core CPU in the Deck.

Combine that with the 15W shared TDP limit and the game would basically have to be able to run using only roughly 25% the CPU load.
