Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

FFVII on SteamDeck maybe? I would probably play that.

I don't think it will run very well there, we can have hope though

That makes sense.

I gotta say, the SteamDeck has been a weird journey. I'm playing a lot more high graphics titles now that I can just quickly check for a 'SteamDeck Verified' badge.

On the one hand, mine is a first generation portable, so there's a lot of games it is never going to run.

On the other, it keeps surprising me what gets ported to it.

It's surprisingly capable hardware. Doom External was running at solid 60FPS on medium or high settings (can't remember) for me. Sure, it's a very well optimised game, but it's a real looker too.

I know, right?! It keeps surprising me, in a nice way.

Oh man I'm very impressed with it. First "console" in many years that I've been really really happy with.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

First one ran just fine, so maybe? 🤞

Maybe! There's much bigger spaces in this one, more assets to load etc. Recommended specs are an RTX 2060 for 1080p 30fps low settings. I would say the steam deck sits around there?

NICE. Glad I waited and didn't get it for PS5 first
