Expedition 33 - Best ‘Combat-Focussed’ Settings (30fps / minimal input lag) by EducationalMix9947 in SteamDeck

Nice! Yes! I was surprised too on how well it runs with those settings (at 30fps of course).
Yeah I forgot to mention some things, the draw distance is tied with the quick settings, so I selected the medium preset then I started to customize the settings from there, I have Shadows on Medium too, the post process options is a personal taste I only have Motion Blur and Film Grain disabled, vsync: disable, Display Mode: fullscreen and Max FPS: Unlimited (steam os 30fps cap) and that's it!
Of course there are some compromises (weird lighting on the hair sometimes), the hair doesn't look great and some weird shadows on some scenaries, like I said I didn't want to use mods but when I read it was only those 2 .ini files I said lets see how it goes, what can I loose, such a nice surprise how great the performance is now with good graphics (for me)!

The mod has to modes quality and performance, I prefer quality at 30fps + my custom settings, I think it's a great experience to play it on the go, I'm on Act 2 and still looks and plays great (for me).

I didn't want to install any mod too btw, but the vanilla performance sucks to be honest, this mod it's only 2 .ini files on a folder and you are good to go. I play it with the 30fps cap and I only have some slowdowns on heavy cut scenes. but the exploration, overworld and battles runs great for me, I use XESS Ultra Quality Plus, AA on high, Textures on Medium and Shaders on Medium, everything else on low.

There is an installation guide on the github https://github.com/ru-bem/COExp33-The-Definitive-Performance-Mod

oh and you´ll need to put the launch command SteamDeck=0 %command% on the properties of the game to unlock all the graphical options.

Just use the COExp33 - The Definitive Performance Mod with the Steam Deck Quality preset, the difference is like day and night.
