What Should New Steam Deck Users Know About?
CryoUtilities for performance optimization.

My Starfield Performance Settings - Some Tweaks Other Have Not Posted - Near 30 FPS consistently in New Atlantis - video included
First you will need Cryoutilities installed. Set it up and set the recommended settings. There is a guide on how to set VRAM to 4gb in the video for Cryoutilities, so do this as well. Next install the Starfield Potato Mode Textures Mod and use the 256 bit version for slightly better quality (the standard version is a bit better performance but I don’t like the muddiness of the textures).

Steam Deck is currently 20% off during Steam’s Summer Sale
CryoUtilities will let you keep the shader cache on the same storage device the game is installed on. I still think an SSD is a worthwhile upgrade but I thought that was worth mentioning.

INSTALLATION: To install Cryo Utilities, make sure you have a sudo password already set otherwise it cannot perform tweaks necessary for this to work. 1st download the installer here: CryoByte33/steam-deck-utilities: A utility to improve performance and help manage storage on Steam Deck. (github.com) scroll down till you see a link that says "Download this link" and right mouse click over it to open the context menu and click "save link as" and save it to your desktop.

[GUIDE] Hogwarts Legacy (DODI Repack) on Steam Deck using Lutris
Decky Loader and it's plugin vibrantDeck. Set saturation to 200% to achieve somewhat-OLED-like colors in game. Alternatively, someone said that ReShade also does the job (see the same optimization guide here).
