Hi all! I bought a used Steam Deck 2 weeks ago and I am loving it! I am playing Fallout 4 on it and it works amazingly good!
So, what is your choice when you finish playing?
I put the Steam Deck to sleep and the next day the battery was 7 percent lower than before. I am thinking of just shutting it down so it doesn’t drain battery in sleep mode.
Honestly most of the time I don’t even close the game, I just put the device to sleep, I’m usually near an outlet so loosing a few percent doesn’t bother me, I do use a plugin to cap the charge to 85% though
What plugin do you use? Is there a measurable benefit?
I use a lot of plugins, all downloadded/installed through Decky Loader, some are just aesthetic, some add features, such as decky recorder which only causes a slight prefomance hit (you really should look at them to see)
Other things that I would recommend that aren’t Technically plugins are Cryo Utils (which does have a prefomance boost as explained in The Devs official video here )
And Emudeck for well… Easy emulation, there are a lot of videos for all of these things online if you need tutorials
