VGChartz's Issa Maki: "In the realm of video games, guns and swords go together like Yin and Yang. The complementary inverses of each other, it's hard for developers to choose one when they could have both. Imagine Devil May Cry or Bloodborne without guns, and if X from Mega Man was cooler than that time he used the Z-Saber to compliment his X-Buster then it's not in a game I have in my library.
And waiting patiently in the shadows like a good kagemusha, Flying Wild Hog drops in when everyone least expects it, wielding a game that effortlessly combines the satisfaction of using fire-forged steel to bisect enemies with the power to erase everything at the pull of a trigger. The fact that Id Software may have been shown up slightly is also amusing."

Yeah same here. Lots of unsuported indie horror games that end up being fully playble with standard controls and no issues whatsoever.
Thus far, most unsupported games run fine on Steamdeck but I have run on some issues with some lesser known games as well (do not boot at all despite trying various proton versions) but again those were mostly indie horror games.
Playable games almost always play well and have minimal if any issues so I am not sure what Anast is trying to point out here.
I have shadow warrior 2 and am playing it on deck right now. Runs really well and looks good too.
The "playable" label can be something as simple as needing a mouse click on a menu cause controlelrs don't work lol its crazy how many automatically claim a game will run like shit just cause of that label, same with those unverified. take helldivers 2, its unverified on steam because of the mp, not because the game itself doesnt work. just something to keep in mind.
I wasn't really impressed with the second game, hopefully the third one is better.
1 st one is the best. Second one is meh. Couldn't play third one because of, it was crashing on my PC.
Azfar Rayan from NoobFeed writes - Shadow Warrior 3 felt like a significant step down from the excellent Shadow Warrior 2, and it's a tremendous disappointment and a squandered chance to improve the franchise.
2 was incredible but for some reason people didn't like it. I never understood why. 3 is the result of useless "fan feedback" from people that didn't like 2 which makes no sense cuz it was better than the first game.
3 is really good, 2 is better. Not having new game plus in 3 is absolutely terrible though.
