I have a hard time playing games like Elden Ring or any big budget games on the Deck. Games like Ballatro or Animal Well are much better.
My biggest use case for the deck is to be able to keep playing the same games as I do on my main gaming PC when I go on vacation. This was really put to the test with Cyberpunk 2077 and it worked shockingly well.
That said... it's definitely not ideal, and it's generally relegated to similar games like you're talking about. Peglin, Celeste, etc
