MODERATORS
My library is plenty large enough and it's 80%+ gold verified on protondb, and I've found success in running titles that were unverified (but not borked, I've never tried any of the dozen or so borked games in my library).
Disgaea 4 runs flawlessly without any modification on my deck, it does take a moment to start, I believe that is when it's trying to connect to the online servers which I have entirely disabled through the in game options menu.
I won't attest to anything outside of steam, because I didn't buy a laptop or a console, I bought a steam deck. And I have more than a thousand games ready to go on it.
Edit to add: not sure where you pulled "universal compatability" from, I never mentioned that at all. Contrary to that statement all of the games I mentioned, and everything I've ever tried playing, are titles activated through steam.
Forgive my asking; how did you get that little wheel/graph of (what I'm assuming is) the compatibility of your Steam library?
Go to ProtonDB and link your steam account.
Okay, that was a pretty stupid question. My bad and thanks.
You're good, no shame in asking questions.
I mean, I pulled it from reality. I'm just assessing the way it works for the OP, not representing what you said.
As for Disgaea 4, I do believe that it works for you, the threads on the Steam forums also include people who say it runs for them, along with several who can get it to run by fiddling with Proton versions or doing some combination of launch options, multiple retries and settings changes. But it does have problems. It won't run at all for me and others report frequent crashes, endless loading screens and other issues. It should definitely not have a Verified rating.
That's the exception, not the rule, I just mentioned it because you pointed it out and it happens to be one of the games that don't run universally for everybody.
