Runs fine on my Rog Ally. High settings, 900p, RSR. I'm able to use the 30/60 (30 in between plays, 60 during gameplay) frame rate cap fine.

You should be able to run it on the Deck at 720p no problem with medium settings.

Occasional stutters which I believe is shader compilation. Would be nice if they gave the option to compile at startup. Otherwise it's great on handheld.

I would say it runs ok at 720p on the Ally. Anything else is unplayable.

Yup 720p not 900p upscaled to 1080p using RSR. Looks and running great for me.
It won't run on wine/proton or the steam deck https://i.imgur.com/VoWJYP7.png and is actively being blocked by EA's new kernel level (malware/rootkit) EA anti-cheat, which only runs on Windows 10/11 and requires both TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot to be enabled.

"Error: The program encountered E111000B at 00002163 during initialization. Wine, Proton, and Steam Deck are not supported by this application!"

It's a real shame too. I was seriously considering buying this game but not anymore.
