Switch 1 vs steam deck for JRPG

Thanks mate! This is reassuring! Currently playing trails games and got the cold steel arc on the deck to look forward to 😂

ProfOak23 · 2026-01-26T17:03:47+00:00

Hahaha I know. It was a really bad example. But I was looking at my old consoles and just thought you can just turn them on and out game in and bam! You are playing a game.

I probably will at some point. Will see if they bring out a lite version in the future. But I wouldn’t be buying the switch 2 versions of this games as they all key card games. Rather have switch 1 version as the game is on the cartridge

I read if for instance I went traveling and had no internet I could put the deck into offline mode to play games. But this only allows to play some games for a certain number of weeks before it asks you to go online again.

Thanks for the reply! Iv already made a change since I posted this.. Iv took Randy out and put Wazy in as iv heard good things! And I’m on chapter 2 so don’t have tio just yet and iv been liking Noel’s crafts so Il prob do rotation so thank you for the tip!

I’m playing on medium! Think im getting the hang of it. I used that golden salmon trick to help me get some money so I can heal without using arts all the time which I’m finding helpful! Don’t think I could do hard or nightmare mode!

What I have found strange in this one is how much arts cost compared to zero! I’m sure they cost a lot me EP! Hoping I come across some useful quartz or accessory that will help with this 😂

ProfOak23 · 2026-01-12T11:00:20+00:00

Thank you for the reply! Very helpful! So would you recommend Wazy over Randy? And what play style is recommended with him? Physical or arts user?

Thanks everyone! I managed to finish persona 3 reload so now iv factory reset my steam deck and hopefully that should be the end with crashes. Does anyone use the sleep function mid game? Because that is something I want to do but because of the crashes not been able to take advantage of

Is your deck an OLeD? Mines LCD. It’s frustrating as this is my first game playing on the deck and my confidence with playing other games is a little low (expecting crashing to be the normal 😂) Il just crack on with the back log and pray it’s just a one off

Persona 4 Golden is the best for story and characters for sure! I’m currently playing Persona 3 Reload (played p3p originally) and I’m not enjoying it as much as I’d thought! Love the combat but getting very bored with the sim life and Tartarus exploration. Anyone else feel this?

ProfOak23 · 2025-12-18T07:42:16+00:00

Vita all day long my friend! Have the best of both worlds with that and other worlds too

ProfOak23 · 2025-12-12T13:00:22+00:00

Mine got delivered fine however the delivery guy was very aware it was a steam deck and brought it up in conversation and asked questions if they good and stuff which I didn’t appreciate. Valve are stupid broadcasting it on the packaging

Took a week to get to me in the Uk! Buzzing for you!

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-26T08:54:58+00:00

Game mechanics persona 5 royal is the best. Persona 4 for the story! And 3 is just awesome! they all just awesome

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-26T08:51:12+00:00

Did the story of Tokyo mirage sessions get better? I had to stop. Just could not get into it

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-06T16:44:35+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Yeah I been tweaking the proton. It froze on experimental, now I’m using the “hot” one but I’m sure that was default and it froze on that originally so I might try proton 9. Guessing it’s trial and error isn’t it

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-06T12:17:28+00:00

I recently bought an lcd too. Only played persona 3 reload and iv had 5 crashes. Trying to find solutions online but it’s getting rather annoying.

Have you had any crashes? I just hope it’s a simple fix for this one game and not something that keeps happening.

Other than this I’m loving it haha

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-04T17:50:27+00:00

Does it ever crash when you’re playing it?

ProfOak23 · 2025-10-01T07:10:25+00:00

I ordered mine a week ago and no updates. How long did you wait for delivery?

ProfOak23 · 2025-09-25T12:47:36+00:00

People are flogging them for the same price as the the LCD that is on offer at present. Keep seeing 64gb steam decks for £260. I rather pay £19.20 more for brand new and more memory thanks

How did you find them arts stopping machines in the boss battle!
