i play exclusively on the steam deck and am happy with the performance

If you don't mind, what settings do you use? I tried it at launch and quickly got frustrated.

deck game-specific settings:

  • Compatibility: proton experimental
  • refresh rate 40hz
  • allow tearing
  • half-rate shading off

in-game settings:

  • master quality: very low
  • fullscreen
  • 40fps limit

For some graphically-intensive builds or that one map in the swampy area that i cannot for the life of me maintain 40fps, i turn the resolution down in-game (but still fullscreen) and use the deck's FSR at max sharpness, though this does make text a little hard to read, so i try to avoid it. I can generally get away with tdp limit of 10-12W too.
