The Steam Deck ran it surprisingly well, to be honest. I used the settings off this page and it ran at a pretty solid ~40 FPS.

Not my favorite game, but it was pretty and fun to jump around hacking people as I hacked at people (with a katana). Story was ok, and the ending was just a bit meh for me, but worth it in my eyes.

Next I'm on to playing Outer Wilds docked to the TV with my partner. I'm a few cycles into it and am hooked. The Steam Deck was an excellent buy!

Recently finished outer wilds on the deck, and now I'm working through the dlc. If you're hooked, you are in for a ride. My advice is don't look at walkthroughs if you have the patience. Sometimes if you stare at the problem for long enough it might just solve itself. ;)

I can concur. Outer Wilds is one of the best games out there, and the DLC is a whole other ballgame, it's amazing.

Bout to play it on Steam Deck as well, hopefully I can get into it.

I played Cyberpunk last December and didn't expect to play most of it on my Deck rather than my PC, but I did! Gyro aiming and the surprisingly good performance on the Deck both contributed to that. I'm a bit worried about how the DLC will run on the Deck, though…

Yeah, I am wondering about that as well. It sadly sounds like it might be a bit much for the deck, but we'll see!

Any mods? When I first started playing I got annoyed with inventory management and remembered some auto-looting node for Witcher 3. Been waiting for all of that to mature.

I've owned it for a while but haven't started it since I'm trying to clear my current backlog. Glad to hear it runs solid though. 40 FPS is impressive.
