My steam deck has finally arrived! Man, it’s a beast but also somehow already super comfortable. So far I’ve played Rogue Legacy 2 and Portal 2. Still playing around with configurations though so not going too in-depth with anything.

Nice, congrats. Portal was one of the first games I installed as well lol. The combination of analogue plus capacitive gyro and built in screen is seriously good.. and makes FPS games way more palatable on a gamepad; being able to micro adjust aim on the fly. Its like a smaller VR experience but without the major downsides.

For a suggestion lock refresh rate to 40hz and 40FPS in Steam settings, and see how you like it. It extends the battery life a lot from uncapped/60 and doesn't look too bad on a small screen.
