Outside of stormveil castle, near everywhere in liurnia, Ranni’s rise. Even the 1st enemy camp (gatefront) dips under 30 at low/med. It even stutters in cutscenes and skips frames completely
Where are you in the game that you’re getting 30fps high settings, just sitting indoors?
I have everything to low except medium shadows and that barely keeps up to get locked 30 outdoors at some places. I don’t think you’re getting high settings. Stop setting people’s expectations up for failure when they see your comment and get hyped for a game they can’t run
Yo man, it’s hard enough trying to cope with an LCD rn.
Yeah this is a big one. The other stuff in decky I could just reinstall, but manually changing many of the custom artworks on a new deck again would be painful
I don’t, as most older games are small enough in size. Ps3/wii-u games can get massive though (20gb for xenoblade x) , but I have very few from this era. Biggest ps2 games are like 8gb
Also you can hotswap the SD card but you still have to be careful when. If the device is in the middle of downloading game updates onto the card (which happens often) and you pull out the SD card you’ll have a problem. So while you generally can do it, just keep a careful eye that nothing is going on when you do it
Great choices. One thing to note is that Resident Evil and Phoenix Wright are often bundled inside Humble Bundles that you can get for way cheaper later
I think the most recent RE bundle was like $20 for re2/3 remake, re7, village, and every release in the middle. Same with Phoenix Wright and I think the Capcom bundle? Hold off on those for a while
Persona 5. I played Persona 4 through the winter holidays last season on the deck and that was amazing. That game fit the winter vibes so well, so I thought I’d try to replicate it with the newer title
The battery life is a massive improvement. It gets 30-50% extra at maxed out 15w tdp. Older emulated and/or indie games don’t need to run this high. It’s the biggest draw for me
These games look so good when upscaled, I was surprised. NBA street plays great on the deck
PS2 games actually look really great when upscaled (just a toggle in the emulator settings) on the deck and most can use wide-screen support (another toggle in settings)
I’m playing a lot of NBA street on the ps2 side right now. Also Jak & Daxter
Nah, there are references here and there but you can play without knowing the previous stories
Witcher 3 plays at mostly liked 60fps at medium settings and has a BOAT LOAD of content, holy cow.
The deck fits casual rpg playstyles so well
But how many games do you actually play on these?
Opengoal version of Jak & Daxter or persona 5 royal
Need to start a new game for holidays
Yup, they’ve always been good to their customers. Treat people well first, the money will come.
Nintendo charged an extra $50 for just oled update. Valve is giving much more than just the display upgrade, for less money. Plus all the consistent software updates they push out and all the community created software for the deck. It’s great.
No offense, but it’s not a “light” upgrade. Nintendo charged $50 extra for just an Oled. The new deck comes with a bigger battery, new chip, and more storage out of the box. For the same price
Shadows alone is a massive difference between low/medium/high, what are you talking about? Show me you’re getting 30fps at all high settings outdoors moving around and fighting
