Is the Steam Deck performance struggling with new AAA games? Should I be concerned buying a Steam Deck now?

I’m guessing/hoping not because most game developers would optimise the games for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series S which have similar performances as the Deck.

I think 30 fps (consistent) is perfectly fine, and I don’t mind medium details.

    Yes the Deck will be my primary gaming device, but I don’t primarily want to play modern AAA games. My gaming library will be a variety indies, AA and a few AAA games.

    I don’t want to invest in a gaming laptop or desktop, I would rather use cloud gaming in the cases I need better graphics.

      Well, in that case just be prepared for certain games to be unsupported or run very poorly. Anything with kernel level anti cheat won’t be available to you. Cloud gaming is definitely a good way to supplement :)
