I loved Discord Elysium! Going to pick up Pillars of Eternity because of your comment. Never heard of those games and looks cool.
Going to try these on my Steam Deck, not sure how the controls work with controller yet. ProtonDB gave both a platinum rating, yet Steam says playable lol. If it's anything like Divinity Original Sin 2 then I'm excited.
Steam's checkmark rating is based on a very specific set of criteria, like if the game plays well on gamepad, if the UI elements work on small displays, if it requires keyboard input, etc. Yellow check means the game will play, green means it theoretically has an experience which is on par with native console games.
ProtonDB only cares how good the Linux compatibility is in general, not specifically on the Steam Deck.
ProtonDB now has their top results specifically for the Deck, which is annoying since I only care about general Linux compatibility and would like to remove them. I can filter my results to show matching OS / graphics card, which is great, but only once I've scrolled passed a whole pile of stuff I don't care about.
Disco Elysium is Verified. The only reason Pillars is Playable and not Verified is because the game doesn't always have the correct button prompts.
