This has been around for at least 10 years

Shit battery capacity, bloated OS causing worse battery life, and not enough people actually buying them.

Lmao it’s not even close

It really doesn’t run well at all and you have to reduce the settings so much that it looks really bad. When I tried it I was barely hitting 30 fps on one of the first few difficulty levels. Unless they’ve drastically improved performance or people only play at low difficulty I personally wouldn’t recommend it.

It’s not so bad if you stream it from a pc but I assume most people want to play portably.

I got Helldivers to work by making it open in windowed mode rather than full screen, then making it full screen once it opened. Seems to be a common issue with it. someone on protonDB mentioned it iirc.

What games are you playing that run at a stable 60 on a steam deck?

Rider has just been better in every way imo. I haven’t touched VS in years.

It does cost but you also get a permanent licence for the version you paid for so you can pay for a year and keep that version.
