I'll never understand these articles... Like, sure, that's cool? Kind of like saying you can run Doom on a fridge.

I'm not going to play Doom on the fridge tho, and I'm not playing Portal RTX on my Steam Deck.

I guess for people that only have a deck for gaming this is more relevant, but still, why force ray tracing on a low power device??

Also Portal RTX changed some textures (like the portals) for some reason, I'd rather play the original instead.

You answered your own question: it's for people who only have a deck for gaming. And the comparison to doom on a fridge doesn't really hold, as the steam deck is designed for gaming.

Fair enough, I'll just recommend them to go play the original at 60 fps and native resolution :P
