Who would’ve thought? This isn’t going to fly with the EU.
Article 5.3 of the Digital Markets Act (DMA): “The gatekeeper shall not prevent business users from offering the same products or services to end users through third-party online intermediation services or through their own direct online sales channel at prices or conditions that are different from those offered through the online intermediation services of the gatekeeper.”
Steam Deck is pretty awesome in the offline gaming regard, if that’s what you might be looking for.
I’d argue that there are a lot of offline mode frustrations with Steam but none of them are Steam’s fault, they are all due to individual games online requirements or DRM implementations.
Uh, it’s actually quite the opposite, most games you need to at least open them one time while connected to the internet for offline to work.

But that is not the fault of Steam Deck, which was discussed.
