Retro video games
Lately RetroArch has been eating up all my Steam Deck time, and thankfully I’m able to go for long stretches before the battery dies. As a general rule of thumb, if you’ve got a bunch of retro ROMs burning a hole in your SSD (I don’t need to know how you got ‘em), then it’s time to get to work chewin’ through them on Steam Deck.
My recent experience has mostly been on NES games, where I typically get a solid five hours while running shaders (specifically the excellent Mega Bezel Reflection Shader). Tweaks to shader settings, cutting features like reflections for example, ought to give you more battery life.
