    Baldurs gate 3 on my steam deck. Great game so far though I wish it ran a bit smoother on the deck. Maybe I’ll try to tweak it some more.

      I’m in my third play through of it. It’s such an amazing game, so many emotions and amazing storylines.

      Where are you up to?

          Oh man, you’ve got sooo much to go! It’s great. I love that whole starting area. It’s so much fun.

          My second play through was a wood elf bard. She was pretty fun to play. Considering I’m a barbarian player usually. First play through was a half orc barbarian, she was really cool.

      I’ve played a few hours now of BG3 and i have a hard time getting into it.

      I never played a D&D game in my life but want to give this a try.

      I’m just so clueless what to do with classes, jobs, etcetera.

      But the game looks great and story is interesting so I’m eager to see how it plays out.

      in my experience, you can get pretty smooth gameplay at the cost of graphics, or pretty decent graphics at the cost of smoothness and fps.

      I have mine set to pretty ok-ish settings for both. but then I tend to swap between handheld and docked for most games. so I’m kinda used to the graphics by now.

      hope you find a setup you like <3

        I had okish graphics at 45fps, dropped it down to 30 and it feels overall better now
