I’ve been using endeavouros for about a year now, and if things stay as they are I’ll never be switching. Like you said it just sits right for some reason. Easy installed and everything just works, all my games run great on it as well. I use the zen kernel but I dont think its mandatory.

Biggest advice I can give is set up timeshift…like now. Its a huge safety net and will let you play with things with out worrying

You could give wartales a look, great game that I’ve sunk a lot of hours into. To be fair though I play on a linux desktop not steam deal but close enough.
