I was wondering how much you are using your Steam Deck? And did the games you play on it change since you bought it?

I find that I used it a lot when I first got it, but my usage has gone down in the mean time. That's mostly because I play games that are not a great fit for the Steam Deck (strategy, building, etc.) and I prefer to play those on my PC.

step 1: switch deck to desktop mode

step 2: open up Discover (flathub preinstalled package manager) and search for Beyond All Reason, click install

step 3: if you want to be able to play it in gaming mode navigate to the app in your start menu in desktop mode and then rightclick "add to steam"

step 4: play BAR!
