Getting rid of GameScope on your Steam Deck isn't a straightforward task since it's baked into the SteamOS system for game optimization and management. However, if you're really determined to disable or bypass it, you could try accessing the desktop mode and using a different game launcher. Keep in mind, this is a workaround rather than a direct solution, and it might affect your gaming experience or Steam Deck's functionality.
