I've never had a Steam account or done PC gaming. I have a OLED SteamDeck coming, what do I need to know?

Pretty much title, and looking for game recommendations. I'm hoping I can play Apex Legends and The Finals reasonably well on it. I'm out of cell service frequently so I'm looking for interesting games I can download. I'm mostly a FPS player but do third person for World of Warships on console.

Apex Legends is verified: https://www.protondb.com/app/1172470

The finals doesn't work because of anti-cheat: https://www.protondb.com/app/2073850

Edit: World of Warships is playable: https://www.protondb.com/app/552990

I wonder if you could run The Finals via Heroic, since it has Easy Anti Cheat as an option.

Easy Anti Cheat works through Steam/Proton as well. If a game doesn't work then it is due to the developers' implementation. It won't matter what launcher you use.
