Hi all,

My partner is thinking of trying out Baldurs Gate, she plays exclusively on steam deck and has no real gaming experience on anything else other than her switch.

Is the performance acceptable for someone who is very used to 30fps? I know for me it would be too much of a downgrade after playing on PC, but she doesn’t have that experience.

Thanks for any help!

    OP the wonderful thing about steam and valve is you never have to ask this question so long as you buy directly from steam and not a 3rd party key seller. You have 2 hours to decide if you want to keep playing up until that mark a full refund is offered… With the updates act 3 runs above 30fps smoothly. It would take upwards of 40-50 hours to get there anyway. 40-50 hours of what I consider some of the best parts of the game. You could also go to ProtonDB, that’s where those of us who are initiated check before we get something we plan on playing on steamdeck.

      To be fair, the worse performance is in Act 3 which is well past the 2 hours mark. So it’s worth asking.
