Pretty much the same titles over and over again.

I'll never not be shocked at BG3 because it runs potato quality but to each their own, I suppose.

imma part of the reason it shows up.

Agree. AAA titles aren't suited to run on a Deck and should be streamed from a PC with remote play....but I this k this is the appeal of having the games in a portable format, that people are willing to put up with such shit performance.

It really depends on the specific game, many older AAA games or non-unreal games run fine.

It's also interesting seeing how some games run much better now than they did on release. CP2077 (non-dlc parts) runs pretty well now for example, much better than it did when the Deck first came out.

I thought elden ring ran beautifully. Is bg3 that rough on deck?

[–] Cenotaph@mander.xyz 3 points 11 hours ago

Runs fine on mine but it definitely runs it at a weird res and upscales to maintain performance

[–] twistypencil@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I love potatoes, also BG3 works fine on the deck?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Define "fine". Is it playable? Sure. But it also looks quite bad at 800p/low/30fps

[–] Creat@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The display of the steam deck is only 720p in the first place.

Oh right, had just assumed it's 720p because the width is 1280. So it isn't 16:9, which is nice but slightly surprising!
