Pretty much title, and looking for game recommendations. I'm hoping I can play Apex Legends and The Finals reasonably well on it. I'm out of cell service frequently so I'm looking for interesting games I can download. I'm mostly a FPS player but do third person for World of Warships on console.

Start with creating a steam account and start looking around. Put the games you'd like to buy on your wishlist. There is a big sale just about every two months, with smaller sales in between. Most games are heavily discounted during the sales, so waiting a few weeks can save you a lot of money.

With the steam deck, you can also play games from other stores like epic, but the setup is a little bit more complicated.
