Refresh features include: OLED HDR 90 hz Better battery life (50wh vs 40wh) Cooler Lighter Even better performance, even though not advertised by Valve! (because of the better DDR memory 6400mt/s vs 55000mt/s) Bigger screen

For what it is worth, I’ve had a few games that weren’t officially supported so I just turned on the Proton setting and it’s worked so far. Online multiplayer seems to be a sticking point though due to anti-cheat.

I'm not an online gamer, I just want to play the games I've been playing for 15 years

@EmergMemeHologram @vanderbilt looks like a good choice to me :)

It's really mostly EAC and Co nowadays that are blockers. And this is not because there is no support per se. It has to be allowed though because this stuff does indeed detect that it's not a "real Windows".

Stupid launchers are also trouble sometimes. Looking at you EA!

Anyway, a good source to tell is still the protondb. What's listed there usually works on the Steam Deck too. Or has workarounds explained.
