I’m getting my first Steam Deck for Christmas and suffering from analysis paralysis on which games to get first lol (especially as I’ll have to be more limited on what I spend than I’d like), so I was curious what AAA games you’ve played on the SD that you enjoyed the most so far.
The one I’d really love to play is Baldur’s Gate 3 but I‘ve seen a lot of mixed reactions on how well it plays on the SD so I’d probably wait to play it especially as I’m not very technologically literate lol. But some others I’m considering are Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3, Elden Ring, Skyrim, Fallout 4, RDR2, and Sekiro
Death Stranding was fantastic on Deck. No performance issues and it controls super well.
I’m currently playing Rise of Tomb Raider, and it’s playing really well. It’s the native Linux version that ProtonDB doesn’t advise, but it’s running better than the Windows version for me.
The only thing is that it doesn’t resolve cloud saves between the Linux and Windows version
Just chiming in that shadow of the tomb raider is a solid 40 for me on high settings. Looks amazing on OLED
Baldurs Gate 3 easily
God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn.
CP is a good choice, also Jedi Fallen Order, Mafia (Remake) and the System Shock (remake). Fallout 4 also runs also well, it‘s just not a good game at all.
That abbreviation was never meant to be.
Elden Ring and Sekiro are great experiences on the deck! Sekiro you can get close to 60 fps if you turn it to low settings, Elden ring you’ll get 30. I wouldn’t try pushing for more.
I have cyberpunk on GoG so I briefly bought it on steam when it came out with the 2.0 update and I just didn’t love that experience. I refunded and I’ll just keep playing it on my pc on GoG
Baldurs gate actually. Just find some good setting. I played through the entire game and it was awesome on deck
Been loving Metro Exodus. Getting average to 40-50 FPS, with worst case scenario around the 30 mark. Runs really well on the deck and is so much fun.
Diablo 4 and WOW
How’s wow with the controls ?
Pretty good with the console port add on, probably depends on the class you play though. I play Hunter these days which works well.
I play ff7 remake, hogwards legacy, bg3 [the game is even with 20 fps playable sinince its round based]. Mass effect legendary edition.
600 hours of elden ring
Dave The Diver!
A man of taste.
Doom Ethernal played glorious, also Metro Exodus
Disco Elysium
Monster Hunter World Iceborne
