What? The Steam Deck needs trackpads and L4, L5, R4, and R5 buttons! Without them I wouldn't have been able to play modded Minecraft properly due to the amount of controls introduced by the mods I use.
If they ever drop the track pads I'm out. It's the only reason I got the Steam Deck as I play a lot of WoW on it and they are basically required. Plus I tinker in Linux a ton too and also they are super necessary.
It also looks like we got rid of the start and select buttons as well...
They also seem to have replaced the Steam and QAM buttons with home (?) and menu buttons
I could never play Guild Wars 2 without them either, and it's one of my most played games. One of the reasons I got a Deck too.
