Super excited! It came in yesterday and I spent most of the day learning the ins-and-and-outs of the deck while loading it up with games. I'm very impressed how good it feels in my hands, sturdy build but light.

Which games are you curious about?

No particular game. I'm just not sure how powerful the SteamDeck actually is and how well it will run resource intensive games.

People have played Cyberpunk on Steam Deck, at reduced graphics levels of course. Horizon Zero Dawn runs also runs pretty well, Elden Ring is a popular one. In terms of gaming performance, it's roughly on par with the PS4. It is surprisingly capable, especially since you have access to settings like framerate limiting, you can sometimes bump up the graphics and still get decent performance by reducing the framerate.
