Comment on I was recently gifted a Steam Deck for Christmas! If you only had a budget of, let's say 50 bucks, what would you get?

  I would have suggested too, but it requires Origin client and it must run in the background while playing. And requires an EA account on top of it. The game is rated Steam Deck Playable, so not really the best experience on the Deck.

  Which is a shame, because the single player campaign is so nice. I don’t know if the online component still works.

    Afaik it installs a gutted version of ea app (fka origin), online is still playable but if it ever becomes unplayable then get Northstar client and enjoy a shitload more freedom and mods, including whole gamemodes
