Lots of good suggestions already, but what first came to my mind is Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. I’m not even into Final Fantasy and have only played a few tactical RPGs, but I fell into FFTA hard when it came out. The battle system was fun, with a little twist that there’s random laws you have to follow each fight (e.g. no attacking with staves) that can get a character arrested and taken out of the action after a warning. Nice music, cute art style, and a pretty good story as I recall.

Yes, on the Steam Deck you can restart into KDE.

I also have a Ducky keyboard.

Makes sense that it would match the inputs on the Steam Deck.

I just went through this exact thing (even having to install on my work computer). As others said, if you hit cancel like three times it lets you proceed.

Hopefully you didn’t have to then do what I did: spin up a VM so the controller sees the exact bluetooth controller in windows, then go back and pair in Linux. It’s extra work sometimes, but totally worth it to not be using windows.
