Stange, on Steam Immortals of Aveum is marked as "Unplayable" on the Steam Deck.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2009100/Immortals_of_Aveum/

The most common reason for this is some DRM that doesn't work on Wine/Proton. So looking at the store page I would guess that this is the culprit:

Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: Incorporated 3rd-Party DRM: Denuvo Anti-tamper

But I guess you get what you deserve. Don't buy EA games and your life will improve.

As you can see here is gold on protondb, it is unsupported on deck only because it's a really heavy game, and the deck does not have enough horse power to play well, but on my beefy desktop it works.

But yeah, the denuvo anti-tamper for sure does not help the performance.

Ah interesting and good to know. Usually I see games that perform poorly marked as playable but with caveats. I guess it just performs so bad that it is effectively unplayable.
