Elden Ring unironically ran better on the Steam Deck for me than my desktop with a gtx1080 and 6c/12t CPU lmao

With protons optimizations, and everything else performance really isn’t an issue most of the time. I’m willing to sacrifice settings anyways. First game I played was God of War to really test its limits and nothing else I’ve played has been as intense.

Why not. If you’re patient enough to wait for a new one, I’d say go for it, but don’t feel burned over it. I’m getting one myself and I bought a deck on launch.

99.99% chance your internet speed isn’t fast enough for it to matter anyways tbh.

OP is the type of person that jumps in line the nano-second a new Apple product comes out because he doesn’t want to experiance FOMO over a slight upgrade.
