Playing The Sims 4 on Steam Deck

I saw someone else ask about playing on a Steam Deck the other day. I don't think a lot of players use Steam Deck on the forums. It might be more helpful to seek information through Google search and YouTube. TS4 has been out long enough on that device that there's review blogs and videos with that kind of information out there already. Or maybe by bumping this thread someone can help you. :)

@johnny_the_genius OP is asking about Steam Deck.

The Steam Deck is a handheld gaming computer developed by Valve Corporation. Released on February 25, 2022, the Steam Deck can be played as a handheld or connected to a monitor in a similar manner to the Nintendo Switch.

I wondered if playing The Sims 4 on Steam Deck is a good idea besides playing on the go. Like do you need an internet connection? How can you use cheats, mods, tray files, etc.? Can the saved files be transferred to your computer where you also play the game and back? How good is the battery if you play the game on the Steak Deck console? Are there any cons to playing EA games on Steak Deck?

You can try it but it has to verified or playable its capabilities are accessed by Valve.
