mods aren’t for everyone but the Steam Deck Essentials mod boosted me like 10 fps in most areas and I’ve had a pretty good time
As a die hard Windows hater that games (I haven’t had Windows installed on any pc I own since 2015) all of the AAA games always get absolutely dogshit performance when they first come out. It was like that with Cyberpunk and it was like that with Hogwarts Legacy. Today, those games play just as well on Windows as on Linux. I’m sure they’ll eventually work it out
I remember seeing a video where they compared linux to windows starfield performance and it was basically the same on average fps but the 1% lows were less prevalent on linux so it might actually work better on linux.
Ah here I found it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zC6fb889qo4
I bet it works fine on amd gpus right now. If you’re on a 10 series Nvidia card you’re fucked. If you’re on a newer Nvidia card it’s still kind of bad though but not every protondb report involving Nvidia 3xxx or 4xxx cards is complaining about performance. I suspect there exists some kind of performance fix for later Nvidia cards that is not yet well known.
The latest driver is 537.13 I think. Most of the time they only bother to put every multiple of 5 driver version in Linux distro repositories. Someone that was familiar with how exactly the low level parts of this worked could manually get driver 537 working on Linux probably. No idea if that would work or not but I haven’t seen someone claim to have tried it yet.
I get a lot of crashes on my rx 6700s, mainly when loading into Neon or The Well

I don’t think anyone is surprised to hear that it does not run well on the deck. Personally I’ll be streaming the game with game pass if I want to play on steam deck

I’m using Greenlight, which I find to be more convenient than the official way: https://github.com/unknownskl/greenlight
Microsoft has a guide for it actually and it works pretty well:
I barely get 30-45fps at 1080p with an rtx 2070, not surprised the Deck is struggling.
Too bad the performances are not the biggest problem with that game
Sooooo boring, shitty interface, emotionless characters, the starting plot is dumb as f. I’m really happy to have taken the pass to test it, would have been a waste of money
Well more time for bg3 and sea of stars
That sounds like fallout 4 in a nutshell, a game that I couldn’t stand more than an hour of.
The starting sequence is waaay too long.
Hey, I’ve got an idea for how to start our go-anywhere do-anything space exploration game! 8 hours of hand holding tutorial quests ought to be plenty of buildup, right? None of this exciting dragon attack starting sequence BS, let’s really bore the hell out of our players.
