Some games have security software that requires Windows. Destiny 2 for example.
Well, at least for me the solution is simple: don’t buy those games.
That’s… that’s a lot of games.

On the 1st page I found exactly one game that I’d maybe want to play, but not like I couldn’t live without it. None on page 2 and one game again on page 3. Every single game I wanted to play on the Deck works (true, some of them needed some tinkering).
Remember, I said the solution is simple for me. Generally the games that don’t work are not really my cup of tea, like online games and generally stuff that’s more cash-grab than a game. There are few games that would make me consider getting Windows to play, but luckily all of those work well. I still wouldn’t install Windows on the Deck, though, I’d probably stream it from some PC.
Yeah, I dunno if that list was supposed to be convincing lol… Most of the games on there are total “games as a service” garbage.
Every single one of these games looks like trash. Like 4 out of 5 (on page 1 at least) of the games on the list are games I’ve only heard about from YouTube advertisements that I didn’t use SponsorBlock on.
Not very convincing.
The Call of Duty franchise is one of the biggest games going. PUBG Battlegrounds is huge, so is Destiny 2.
