The battery life is trash(og version). Earlier today I was playing Jedi Fallen and the battery life went from:ahh:to:francis:to:dead: within an hour. I have to constantly charge the damn thing. How are people finishing big lengthy AAA open world games on this thing? The only two games I am close to finishing is Hotline Miami and Ryse: son of Rome.

Haven't really done much with mine yet. Installing and running chiaki4deck was pretty simple and seems to run smooth, at least in the house so far...


But brehs I feel like I'm out of the loop on roms. I guess I'm just used to simple ones like SNES but trying to get Switch set up is going to be a challenge. I've read I need certain files and I can't find a good tutorial.

Bought the Portal and it does a fine job, but not quite what I wanted. Returning tomorrow. Sold my Xbox Series X for $350 and ordered the OLED Steamdeck. I’ve always been a console game. Already bought some games I wanted (owned 4 on PS5)

Hades 2
Slay The Spire
Balatro
Brotato
Vampire Survivors

Hopefully it comes soon.
