I’m not sure yet - it’s simulating in a way I like - maybe depends on the game but I would leave it on 90 for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I think if you have it on 90 it uses the refresh rate to say run at 40fps and make it seem like 80fps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Not sure what it’s doing yet but definitely think 90hz looks very very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That you might want to cap to 30fps - I think it’s on per game basis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 It definitely has more power than before so I’m not all sure what it can do yet. You used to have to reduce power because of the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 @stepee When the F2P version comes to steam check out Killer Instinct. 10 years later and some of the best particle effects I've ever seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spork3245 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 @stepee ROG Ally or Deck OLED?

CitizenVectron Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I really wish I had a use-case for this, because I really want one, but can't justify it. I mostly do m+kb FPS games or simulations like Cities Skylines. I guess I do play Rocket League, which is great for the deck...but I also don't go anywhere or need to be mobile, lol.

XxEvil AshxX Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Steam has the first 6 Yakuza games for like, $35, and then Like A Dragon for $12. Has anyone played the PC ports of Yakuza? Has anyone played them on the Steam Deck? I feel like this would be the thing that gets me to actually play through the series, I'm just curious if the PC versions hold up.

I haven't tried it myself but the steam discussions seem to be fairly positive on it: In regards to Steam Deck performance :: Resident Evil 4 General Discussions STEAMCOMMUNITY.COM How well does it run on that wonderful rectangle? Just an FYI, every steam page has a "steam community" where you can read discussions on every game. So if you want to know how it runs prior to purchase you can check there before you buy. Personally I think the most demanding game I've ever played on the Steam Deck was Monster Hunter Rise, I don't generally play the big games on there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how they run on the deck. They are verified though and as I did for Best above the steam discussions they seem to indicate it works well but you might have to mess around with settings.

I actually think I would have been less bone-headed at picking up the core gaming loop if I had started on the PC, as the UI is a little small on the Deck. But, to me this is the perfect game for a hand held -- playable in small chunks, relatively simple gameplay mechanics, but enough content to play for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep debating on finally getting one but I hate turning down fidelity settings so it would probably be a lot of streaming via link or moonlight I don’t ever plan on using my Ally again unfortunately after seeing how much better the display is here. And for Moonlight that is what will matter most to you. Edit: I still wonder if there is an issue with frame gen games because of my pc being set at 120hz and setting a cap isn’t great with fg still I think? But I’m sure it’s fine and any issue there will be mitigated by the huge screen improvement for everything besides those 6 games. edit 2: Once covid ends for me I plan to swap the 2tb in my ally into the deck, so that is how I feel about one vs the other :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I tried TLOU and @best3444 - you do want to cap at 30fps - I didn’t realize it now runs 30fps in a 90hz container - Im playing the most demanding part (hydraulic dam) and runs fine on default settings with that 30fps cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
