Weird. I was just expecting some odd key combination not that it isn’t implemented at all.
I guess I have to keep a controller near to access the menu then as a workaround.

Using the official dock, I don’t have a picture until I sleep cycle* my Deck if the TV is not on before waking it up. There is no picture on either display until then.
Also I am using a tiny keyboard for waking up the Steam Deck and it never works if I replugged the device without another sleep cycle.
It’s not great, but at least there are some workarounds. Which work for me.
*Sleep cycle means waking up the device and putting it back to sleep at least once
Sorry, I cannot really answer this. I am using the docked USB ports for mouse and keyboard receivers and have never tried any external storage.
Yes, I played most of it docked to my TV using a PS5 controller and only some undocked. There is no difference between docked and handheld mode like for the Switch though so it is fine either way.
Just don’t expect the highest quality settings for any recent AAA game. Due to hardware specific optimizations it is seriously impressive what the machine can actually run.
I completed Elden Ring on the Steam Deck without problems and I assume the other Souls games would run even better. Vampire Survivor also runs fine, no surprise really.
It is awkward as a laptop, but for gaming it is really nice. It’s the closest you can get to a gaming console for PC games.
It is unlikely that Cataclysm ever goes on sale, because the steam release basically is just a donation. You can get the game for free on the official website: https://cataclysmdda.org
There you can also donate other amounts than the Steam price.
What are you talking about? This is about using a mouse and keyboard with a docked Steam Deck.
