Hello fellow players. A couple of friends and I are thinking about getting BG III on Steam Deck with the intention of playing together. However, what’s stopping us from buying it is the mixed reviews when it comes to performance. We’ve mostly been Switch gamers, so graphics are not really an issue. Some people say it’s playable, but we’ve also seen reviews bashing on it since they say it really isn’t playable (but some PC players consider anything under 60fps to be unplayable). And as we know, sadly the verified status doesn’t always guarantee it works great. So, is it possible to maintain a stable 30fps after all these months? Does it make a difference having it installed on the Deck’s internal memory or on an SD? Is it worth it to experience it for the first time through the deck? Thanks in advance for the answers.

    Anyone can play however they want, but I will point out that you arnt getting to act 3 till a solid like 50 plus hours into the game (and that’s probably skipping a lot of content, doing main story) so it doesn’t play game breaking my bad, has frame rate dips in that act for sure, as well as some bugs that I think they’ve been ironing out, but for moneys worth sort of deal for me, I think I got next to 200 hours with various characters without ever hitting act 3, and so that’s still worth on steam deck for me for sure.
