I just wish the SD was a bit more powerful. Recently especially with those UE5 games we need to install some custom scripts just to make them playable and usually they don't even look good. I love the Deck, but Steam should really update the APU.
Agreed. We don’t need it to perform like an RTX 5090 but just a smidge more power would get a ton of recent games into playable frame rates. I still don’t know how people play BG3 on the deck.
I requested a refund for BG3 because it’s not as good as a verified version IMO, but valve refused it.
‘How people play BG3 on the deck?’
If you urgently want to play games on the deck, 25-30fps and basic graphics quality are tolerable.
I love my steam deck so much, but i really want to buy a steam deck 2 ASAP!
