      Heroic

      Yup, my only complaint is that Steam Deck controller doesn’t seem to work automatically with Heroic games launched through desktop mode, and most guides I see recommend running games through Steam.

      If Heroic had smooth integration with the Steam Deck, I’d use it a lot more.

        If you hold start for 1 second in desktop mode you can switch between Desktop and Gamepad profile (which should just emulate a regular gamepad), assuming you don’t mean that.

          Really? Where is that documented?

          From what I see, the only way to do it is to launch Steam and configure it there, and Steam needs to be running while I’m playing whatever game. Or at least that’s what I found online. It seems most people add Heroic to Steam, so maybe I’ll try that.

      I still have problems with any game in the Heroic Launcher that has well… its own launcher. Just can’t get em to work at all.
