If this is your first total war experience, then I can see why you like it, but Troy is by far and away NOT the best of the total war games. Honestly, the further back you go, the better they are. Shogun 2 and Medieval 2 are absolutely fantastic games, with deeper mechanics than many of the more modern ones.

I’ve played about 70% of my 20ish hours so far on Steam deck, and honestly, it’s awesome. Controls work out of the box since release. I don’t really care all that much about graphics, and they’re passable on the deck. I can imagine it’s probably really bad if you dock it and play on the big screen, but handheld it’s perfectly fine and very convenient. Drains battery like a mf, though.
