Snag yourself a battery pack for traveling. I got a baesus 65w one off Amazon for $38 when it went on sale.

Most important thing? Have fun. Don't get wrapped up in fps limits and tweaking unless your game isn't running to satisfaction. There's a lot you can adjust and tinker with but it's easy to get lost in that.

Don’t get wrapped up in fps limits

Or do, depends on what you consider fun ;)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Ya know what? You're absolutely correct. As long as you're having fun 😊

I bought the same battery and can't recommend it enough. It's a monster!

Got the same one too. Just a quick note for anyone looking to buy one: if you're planning to travel with it, get the 20,000mah instead of 30,000mah one to stay under the 100Wh limit for most airlines.

Also, beware the rabbit hole of custom bindings.

But, also, how did I go an entire year without finding out about radial pop-up touch menus on the touchpads? HFS, I'll never get to play a game again for all the time I could spend messing with those.
