澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us Part 1 isn't Steam Deck Verified, as Valve downgrades the PC port and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Naughty Dog pledges patches and fixes ahead of verification fo𓃲r tꦡhe handheld device.

Last week saw The Last of Us Part 1 finally arrive on PC, to incredibly negative fan responses. The port was dubbed "a technical disaster" from Steam♉ reviewers for its litany of performance issues, with Naughty Dog apologizing and pledging to investigate the various issues.

Now though, Naughty Dog is putting p🐷atches and fixes before submitting The Last of Us Part 1 for Steam Deck Verification. As per the tweets from the developer below yesterday on April 3, fixing the game is of far more importance to Naughty Dog than getting a broken game ꧅working for Steam Deck users.

Additionally, it seems even Valve has taken umbrage with the PC port. According to the Steam Deck screenshot below, Valve considers The Last of Us Pa🤡rt 1 on Steam Deck to be entirely "unsupported," but is actively looking into ways to improve the game's ꦡSteam Deck support.

This is all even more disappointing considering Naughty Dog stated The Lasꦬt of Us Part 1 would ♐be Steam Deck compatible all the way back in December 2022. Naughty Dog co-president Neil Druckmann put speculation about the PC port to rest at the time via his personal Twitter account, so there's no wonder PC players are now thinking of this a🔯s a bit of a broken promise.

The Last of Us Part 1 did receive 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a rapid PC patch last week after launch, and Naughty Dog has pledged to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:release a "larger patch" this week at some point. Here's hoping the developer can turn things around for th🌱e PC version, before finally making good on their Steam Deck pledge from last year. 

Despite this fumbled launch, Naughty Dog has pledged to make more PC games in the future.
