i just reconfugure save button on more comfortable position. Other buttons were mapped by community layout.
The text in in-game books and notes was difficult to read, so i gave up on deep lore experience. But I'm sure there is a mod which could fix this, I just didn't want to.
The game crushed only for 6 times, which was a decent experience for 2024 run (people on internet always strugle whith frequent crushes and are in need to instal extra mods to fix that, and nothing like that is needed on steam deck). The most crashes were during DLC awekekning, which is laggy AF anyway.
It was my first playthrough and I was expecting a lot of problems and crashing due to internet rewiews/reddit community/my friend's experience. But they were playing mostly on windows pc. It seems like linux experience is something else, especialy steam deck. It runs pretty well on max ultra grafic setting. Battery runs out fast (like I had 2,5 hours of gameplay on fully charged deck) which was a surprise for me, because I was expecting better performance. But I'm sure there are some optimal settings, which make batery life much more longlasting, I just didn't want to search for them.
The game starts out of the box. No other aditional settings are needed, you just pres play button and the game launches itself. Fortunately the game doesn't need additional EA launcher... For more comfortable gameplay I swiched to the community layout and the aditional change of resolution was needed to fit the screen properly. After that you are ready to explore the game world.
I was able to finish the game from start to the final credits, including the DLCs (note that the Awekening dlc is quite buggy) and the game crashed like maybe 6-7 times, so always have a quicksave button ready, just in case.
