Steam Deck compatibility with Starfield to be discussed "later down the road"

Starfield is set to release on September 6th and there's obviously a lot of excitement around it but will it work on Valve's Steam Deck? That's not currently clear.

    Given Bethesda’s history, it’s 50/50 whether it’ll even be compatible with a Windows desktop PC on launch day.

    I suspect it will work on proton a bit after release.

      I son’t really have any doubts that it will work on the deck, as in we will be able to run the game.

      The performance is what worries me. I’m expecting, but would love to be proven wrong, massive trade offs in order to be able to run it at playable fps.

      Which would lead to Starfield being compatible with linux in general; that would be pretty nice.

      I’m gonna run that sucker at Ultra off of an SD card.

      That way I have more time to enjoy the beauty of every frame.

    I can’t imagine the compatibility will come quickly.
