Mostly modded Skyrim on my Deck (enchanted weapons build), but the majority of my time lately has been playing Tears of the Kingdom on the Switch.
I’m waiting to play BG3 until after it fully comes out. I don’t have a lot of free time as it is, and I’d rather not play through the first part of the game multiple times right now.
I managed to avoid playing Skyrim for over a year(I have played it on every platform I have owned) but a sale got me...
I was never a fan of controller interface for Skyrim, but it's just so much more accessible on the Steam Deck since you can turn the touchpads into hotkey wheels, and use the back buttons to mode-shift so you get even more hotkeys.
I feel the same on BG3. I shelved it for now. I played through the same parts of Act 1 as a Bard and as a Sorcerer. The lack of controller support and the tiny UI made it annoying. The game seems to have a quality plot. I was intrigued. But I see no reason to persist with playing the same area over and over again, fighting the UI and controller when the real deal is close to being released. Yeah, I could remap my controller to work better, but why. Once the game is out, I'll be using their controller layout, so I'd have to relearn it all. Nah, I'll just wait.
How is Skyrim's performance on the Steam Deck? I've never properly got into the game but would love to give it another shot.
It's not bad. Even heavily modded, I get 60fps consistently on High settings, but not Ultra.
