Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.

What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?

    Just wondering, has anyone tried installing windows on it? From my experience using with dual boot, windows give much more fps stability like not getting mini lag etc. on games.

      Windows is super jank on deck. Steamos is far more stable and in many games the proton layer makes games smoother than in windows because the Vulcan to dx 12 stuff forces precaching of shaders.

      For a while people were installing holoiso (steamos for other computers) to make elden ring less studdery.

      Yes, I have tries this personally too. Steamos is much MUCH better for handheld gaming than windows is.

      I haven’t installed windows. I guess I’ve gotten lazy. In the past I would have done that, but nowadays, I don’t want to deal with finding drivers etc. So I decided I’ll just wait until a game is ready to run on the deck natively or I’ll just play what’s available and not sweat that I’m missing out on something. There are very few games that I feel like I have to play. P5, BOTW, Witcher 3 and the like).
