The
Raw input is broken. Use my launch options to get it working.
The game doesn't launch without preloading 32-bit libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4 but it's great experience after using my launch options. Raw input is broken so I also preloaded up-to-date 32-bit SDL2 and set SDL_HINT_MOUSE_RELATIVE_MODE_WARP=0.

The text is a little bit hard to read.
Game refused to launch on native. Switched to Proton and everything works great.

Mapped L5 and R5 to keys, they where unmapped on the start and changed some mappins ingame to better suit my gameplay. The oficial layout should be enough to play the game if you don't want to customize anything.
Locked to 60 FPS and set thermal power limit to 8W. You can play most parts of the game on only 3W but some more demanding parts like Ravenholm will require a little more to get 60 FPS stable.
Subtitles where hard to read sometimes but sometimes they where clear.
The game crashes ocasionaly while opening, once it crashed the deck UI and the deck started rebooting but nothing crucial, there was no crash during gameplay
I've ended HL2 on the deck for about 25h playtime. The battery lasts about 6 hours in this game with High settings no AA. I've set the CPU TDP to 8W to get a locked 60 FPS on all areas. Most area can run as low as 3W but some are more demanding like ranvenholm and can drop to 40 FPS on high. I've remmaped the controller but it wasn't necessary, just to make it a more FPS consistent gameplay, the default controller should be enough. I've had some crashes when the game was loading but never ingame even after sleep and wakeup.
Configure Right Trackpad
Native resolution is not set by default, and cannot be changed with default control config. Change Right Trackpad to "As Mouse" and click pad as "Left Mouse Click" and you are good to go to adjust drop-down menus.
Some HUD elements are slightly too small to read
Technically, the text was a little more legible at default resolution. So out of the box a typical gamer would prefer it this way.
Source games usually seem to work better when using Proton instead of the native version, so I recommend using Proton
