All I did: Add installer as Steam Game. Press play to install. Add launcher as Steam Game. Press play to open the b.net client and install w/e game you intend to. In both cases also force use of proton experimental or else it won't start.

Did you get the b.net installer and launcher mixed up? I did the same uphrade just 3 days ago, 1tb upgrade from 64gb. Diablo works fine for me from the new ssd. On my old 64gb I got them mixed up once and it was a headache to sort out.

I bought the same. It's perfect.

You are fine for now. You will notice when storage starts to run out. Most important thing right now is understanding how everything works on Linux and the Deck specifically. How it handles shaders, why storage runs out even if you dont have games on the internal storage, etc.

Start looking into som videos about the deck. Download cryo utilities and follow that setup, you learn a lot and speed your Deck up while at it. Only suggestion coming from a fellow 64gb user is to not use more than maybe 8gb of storage for the extra "ram" you can create. You will run out of space. And don't install any games directly on the Deck whatsoever. Only use that external storage.

When, or if, you start to run out. A 1tb sd instead of your 128gb could be the easiest option and requires 0 tinkering. I swapped the internal storage myself just about 3 days ago and it was super easy. But just getting a 1tb sd is probably best for most people anyway.

Welcome to the gang. Enjoy. Your purchase was a great one.

The remaster got so much praise. How big are the og vs. remastered scene? Kinda interested.

A windows machine with 120hz screen for 1000 dollars. I dunno man. The Deck is so price worthy!

Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction. I just had to put it on the list.

I wanna say Yoshis Island for SNES but it was so long ago I don't remember if it was one or two sittings. Dunno about the "that was so good" part though. Just completed it :)
