When Death Stranding 2 released for PC last month I didn’t think it would work well on Steam Deck.

Marathon just completed its second full week since the rollout of its Ranked competitive mode, and despite the mind-boggling complexity of its holotag system, its players have been confronting a simple problem: When a game has ranks, players will cheat to climb them. Since its launch, reports of Ranked cheaters have become so prevalent that…
