from my experience it runs ok, its not 60fps but more like 30 maybe 40

It can't hold 60 fps at all from the benchmarks i saw even on the lowest setting, which makes it not playable really since the game's core speed is tied to fps. Input timings becomes messed up when fps drops below 60 so it wouldn't be a good experience, i already experienced that online when fighting people who cannot hold 60 fps which causes the game to slow down and speed up at random making it ny-a on impossible to do combos in some online sessions with people who have performance problems, so deck would be a bad time for both the deck user and anyone they might come up against.

Imagine you were doing a combo and every now and then the game changes the pace as to when you gotta input stuff and what speed to input them in, basically making your experience in doing combos useless.

For performance, it plays at 30 with the lowest setting. With the fps unlocked, it can go up to 60 but will average 45 fps. That's also with the lowest settings. I know the switch plays at 60. So I figured the steam deck would play similarly to the switch and slightly better looking. Only from what I hear yes the switch looks bad but it might hit 60 far more often which is a lot better than the deck. If you have problems with a game running at 30 fps, especially a fighting game then I suggest you pass if you plan to play on the Steam Deck.

This crazy that the switch can still run the game a 60fps but yet we can't even get it on our high end handheld consoles

I would think it would run the game with no problems on steam deck since I can run Battlefield 1 at 60 fps on high settings but I guess I'll pass on MK1 for now lol thanks guys 😏

There is an unofficial patch that helps cap 60fps, but one could only hope that patches or a steam update helps fix the issue

It is pretty playable on the deck.

The switch version's graphical fidelity is much lower than the lowest setting on pc that's why switch can hit 60fps but steam deck can't, and also the pc port and switch port were handled by two different studios.

The switch can hit 60 fps a lot more than the steam deck. That isn't playing better but worse. I don't see how you can say it runs better when it's locked to 30 if you want a stable FPS. The switch is a bit up and down but way more stable than the deck.

You may say you like it but the game feels like it's playing on sand. The switch plays better and it doesn't lol. How old are? Have you played a 98 PS1 game? They do not look or play like MK1, not even close

Again how old are you? You guys bring up old games without seeing how bad those games looked compared to now.
