If a game hypes a lot of people up, it will be verified. That’s like, the most important factor… not even the performance, the controls, etc…
As seen in the title, Baldur’s Gate 3 is the perfect example of this: running at 20FPS with constant dips and my Steam Deck on the verge of exploding isn’t what I call “a game flawlessly running on the Steam Deck…”
Just try to be honest guys, it’s okay if the game is badly rated for compatibility with the Steam Deck, it’s not a big deal if it’s too demanding to run on the handled.
But DON’T BE MISLEADING…
Thanks :))
EDIT: Not tested on the most recent major update. The big one with many changes to the flow of the game.
I don’t even bother trying to run newer games on steam deck. If it doesn’t run at 60 fps docked on 720p with FSR I’ll wait for the next iteration. I’m a couch gamer and always will be
You should really try embracing the 40fps screen refresh rate. It’s actually half way between 30fps and 60fps by frame time so it looks a lot smoother than you’d think.
Nothing else has a screen that can actually do 40 Hz refresh so you usually can’t use 40 fps because it wouldn’t align with the screen refreshes.
40 fps unlocks a ton of games for the steam deck to run well.
I don’t know how it is on the Steam Deck, but on PC, 40 is unplayable and 50 is barely playable.

40 is fine if I’m just playing on the Deck’s small screen but I prefer playing on the TV where 60 is better
If you only play docked, it’d probably be better to have a full PC hooked up to your TV than a steamdeck
I don’t have money for a full PC lmao
Fair. Even if you went cheap/second hand it’s probably more than a steam deck
