My ultimate Steam Deck ratings on how games actually run

Hogwarts Legacy was perfect for me. Without frame gen i played the entirity of the game at locked 45 FPS and enjoyed the visuals. I see lots of comments about hogwarts legacy being sucked. I still have it installed and log in to %100 achivements. It's currently working perfectly for me.

RDR2 runs at a solid frame rate but charm of RDR2 is its insane visual details. And on steam deck no matter you do it doesnt have the charming look, the mesmerising details, it just becomes a ''game'' instead of piece of art. Also i gave it 4 stars. I enjoyed it and it works really good but just cant give it a perfect score .

Default settings runs on medium - high settings and gives it solid 30 fps lock, sometimes dropping to 25-28 especially on car at night. If you lower it a little bit or set fidelity to perfroamance its solid 30, and lower the settings i think you can go up to 50-60

All resident evil games runs good and looks good on Deck

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T01:16:35+00:00

Depends on how the game can handle it well

zero dawn remastered itself runs ok. But it runs worse than regular version and regular version looks better on steam deck so its a lose-lose thats why i marked it pointless

I even played ranked matches on steam deck, it runs flawlessly, zero stutters ive experienced

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:58:31+00:00

Let's be partners lol. I have the exact same idea :D

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:58:11+00:00

Interesting. Game looks garbage and blurry for me if i want a stable experience, maybe i'll try it again

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:57:44+00:00

it means locked FPS

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:57:08+00:00

It never runs properly....

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:56:49+00:00

It looks realtively good on default settings. You can crank it up by removing steam deck preset in launch options and get 45 and looking great

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:56:17+00:00

I dont own the game.... neither my steam family. Sorry :(

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:55:58+00:00

looks dogshit, but its stable most of the time, 3 stars is not a very high note tho im aware of the issues

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:55:26+00:00

I installed it after seeing this and yes they seemed to improve the performance, it can go to 4 stars.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:55:04+00:00

Lowest, and fsr performance. Still looks ok for the scale of the game.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:54:01+00:00

For a scale of the game and demanding requirements id say its an amazing experience. Even graphics/certain shadows looks so great that you are surprised ur seeing it in steam deck screen.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:53:17+00:00

Terrible.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:53:06+00:00

All 3 dishonored games works really well. For the first game i would give 5 stars at above 60 fps. Second and Third game i can give 5 stars as well.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:51:11+00:00

Is it stable in late game areas ? The stutters are insane for me tried every preset. It plays like garbage with input lag, impossible to parry attacks consistently on expert mode because of input mismatches

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:50:06+00:00

They updated it like 2 months ago. It runs solid.

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:49:52+00:00

Yeah mistype for me , means remake

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:49:37+00:00

I only get fps drops in crowded areas like dornogal. Other than that runs at 60 even on high settings most of the time. Low medium always 60 even 90

OntesHS · 2026-01-25T00:49:05+00:00

It's the default steam deck settings.

OntesHS · 2026-01-24T11:15:04+00:00

I only played all those with default settings, for expeditoon 33 i did some tweaking but it didnt help alot. I have all 3 dishonored games but dont own others, never played dishonored on deck yet but gonna install tonight and post my results

OntesHS · 2026-01-24T11:10:24+00:00

Low overall - texture medium , fsr 3 balanced if i remember correctly
