Is “Steam Deck” a preset in the graphic settings selector? If so it is pretty cool, I’ve seen many games claim “optimized for settings “ but unless there is a preset is up to the user to fiddle until it get the optimal settings. This is a cool idea, haven’t seen it before.

Some other games have this too, I know Cyberpunk and the Witcher 3 both come with a Steam Deck preset. I think I heard the First Descendent and Horizon Zero Dawn do too, but I'm not sure.

My experience with Cyberpunk was that the Steam Deck preset was a good starting point, but wasn't actually an ideal way to play the game. Hopefully the Helldivers one will be better tuned.

that is also propably subjective and may even depend on the deck you have, and in which areas the silicon lottery was good or bad to you

You're right, but I've heard a lot of other people say the same. I've also played it on both an LCD and OLED deck, and found that different settings both looked better (in my opinion) and had fewer fps drops.
