    You are fine for now. You will notice when storage starts to run out. Most important thing right now is understanding how everything works on Linux and the Deck specifically. How it handles shaders, why storage runs out even if you dont have games on the internal storage, etc.

    Start looking into som videos about the deck. Download cryo utilities and follow that setup, you learn a lot and speed your Deck up while at it. Only suggestion coming from a fellow 64gb user is to not use more than maybe 8gb of storage for the extra “ram” you can create. You will run out of space. And don’t install any games directly on the Deck whatsoever. Only use that external storage.

    When, or if, you start to run out. A 1tb sd instead of your 128gb could be the easiest option and requires 0 tinkering. I swapped the internal storage myself just about 3 days ago and it was super easy. But just getting a 1tb sd is probably best for most people anyway.

    Welcome to the gang. Enjoy. Your purchase was a great one.

    Playing hardcore you need to set other goals than get this first character to 100. For me, more than anything, its about learning your limits at every stage of the game. Actually learning, getting better. Losing one character doesn’t end that. And. Nothing beats the blood pumping because you are in a sticky situation knowing there are consequences. It’s a thrill.

    That said, I play both SC and HC. Mostly SC because I play late when I’m tired. So my HC progression is slow. Very slow. But I enjoy it a lot next to my SC main. No need to go all in. Think Ive died four times in hc before season 1. My biggest achievement so far is lvl 30 which is only a few hours of progression without death :)




  • And! Enable wlan and get an app on your phone to power on the decent computer with. Get game streaming working. And now you play the demanding titles on the Deck through your computer in handheld with good graphics and enormous battery life. Also get something like parsec to be able to log on and power off the computer. Never need to sit Infront of it ever again? That’s my life :)
