Is the Steam Deck performance struggling with new AAA games? Should I be concerned buying a Steam Deck now?

I’m guessing/hoping not because most game developers would optimise the games for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series S which have similar performances as the Deck.

I think 30 fps (consistent) is perfectly fine, and I don’t mind medium details.

    I didn’t think my question was political, but rather about logistics. I just don’t know of any video game console, or electronics manufacturer in general, that is promising that none of their components are made in China.

      I never mentioned anything about “made in China”. I said “Chinese companies”.

        Oh, sorry, I conflated those two things. So, if I’m understanding this right, you don’t mind if the components were made in China or purchased from Chinese companies, but the seller of the final product cannot be a Chinese company? That’s a far easier rule to satisfy.

          I prefer to avoid everything from China, but that’s not realistic. So for now I avoid products designed/sold by a Chinese company. That includes video games created by Chinese companies.
