Are there really that many people up in arms about this? Fuck epic and fuck fortnite, but were there really that many steam deck users that even wanted to play it in the first place? I see no issues with epic continuing to make dumb and short sighted business decisions, so long as somebody salvages unreal if they ever crash and burn.
For me it's not about fortnite but more about fast-paced multiplayer on the steam deck
When I played Rocket league on the deck instead of my Desktop with Lan, higher resolution and much higher framerate I always felt as if I'm playing much worse than I usually do which is not fun in the slightest
It's a great console for singleplayer and more tactical multiplayer but whenever reading the screen in less than a second and reacting very fast to it in an online game is necessary that's not great...
I generally suck at playing shooters with controllers but I was looking forward to try the Gyro controls for Fortnite.
You can as a workaround play Fortnite on the Deck via XBox Live in a browser. But there you don't have Gyro controls :(
