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.

How useable is the steam deck during nuclear winter ?

Hmmm...

Depends on Steam DRM, access to electricity, and concentration of radiation.

Should be quite usable in ideal conditions after the nukes go off.
