Should I play this on the Steam Deck?

[theshyforest]

So I bought this game after the 2.0 release since I liked all the work the devs did to the game. I just bought a steam deck because I have a work trip coming up but I will have evenings free. Should I play this on the deck (I know its verified) or should I hold off until I am back and can play on my gaming PC?

You sacrifice quite a bit of graphical fidelity on the steamdeck for a steady 60. Some times it gets a bit iffy. Cloud saving should have you covered if you just want to do a bit of shenanigans then play back home.
Alternatively... if you want something you can pop your deckcough out and play for a bit, I really suggest one of these;

Salt and sanctuary is especially good.

I feel like the way maps are connected and made in Lords of the fallen its easy to get lost, especially if you only play for a bit then drop it.

Got it. Ty for the feedback. I likely will put off playing till I get back and can do so on my PC.

To see fsr options..... i get stable no stutter ever 38-52fps; suitable for online crossplay

All setting except textures (medium) on low, the ... button's Lightning bolt GPU overclock maxed per game... Windowed FS, No Intel Xess, no hdr, vsync on, and the last 5 options off except umbral distortation effect is on. But also FSR YES Balanced (added a solid 10fps when i added the command) And i am not using proton or powertools or engine.ini tweaks

You sacrifice quite a bit of graphical fidelity. You... kinda get used to it after a while? It's hard to describe. I anything past low tends to get under 60 fps, so you might as well try to lock the fps at 30 so you dont get whiplash going from 30-50

didnt watch the video but my screen shots have my fps but they dont look the same as in game.. every SS i take of the mimic bug which has an epic name in this game.. looks insanely bad but in game u can see his face fine
