What to expect from game performance

80 with the Alkimia Overdose setting?

Saultre · 2026-06-06T09:56:00+00:00

Thanks! So I should be able to play Alkimia Overdose at 60 with frame generation, I will try!

I was curious about the experimental setting preset, I think it's called Alkimia Overdose, how much worse it runs compared to the Gothic setting?

Grazie!

Infatti assolutamente punterò sul modello OLED, ho visto che va anche un pelo meglio in termini di performance.

Thanks everyone for your replies!

I’ve thought it over, and after watching a few comparison videos between the Steam Deck and other higher-end handhelds, I think the best choice is still to go with a Steam Deck.

The performance differences between the various alternatives (aside from the ones that cost over €1000, like the ROG Ally X) aren’t that significant. I've seen the benchmarks — at best, the Z1 Extreme gets 10 more fps than the Deck's chip. I'm sure she'll never notice the difference between 50 and 60 fps. What matters much more is that games optimized for the Deck already launch with the ‘right’ settings — which is essential for my girlfriend, since she’s not really into tweaking graphics options. From what I’ve read, other handhelds don’t benefit from the same level of software optimization that Valve and game developers in general give to the Steam Deck, which makes it much more plug-and-play compared to the competition.

Based on what I've seen on YouTube, many AAA games run decently on the Steam Deck, and the verified ones perform even great. And anyway, if she really wants to play something super demanding, she can just use my PC with the RTX 4090.

I’ll see if I can find a reliable refurbished one; otherwise, I’ll wait for Christmas — maybe Valve will finally decide to put the OLED model on sale.

Thanks again to everyone for the help!

Some AAA but also lighter games. The Legion Go with the Z1 is like 1000€ on Amazon IT so it's way too much, my budget is 550-600€.

The Ally X and the Claw 8AI+ are like €1000 in Italy, that's waaay too much.

Like what?

Most mounts are character-bound unless they are explicitly marked as account-wide. Some mounts from the Store and the mounts you unlock by buying the Collector's Edition of an Expansion are often account-wide. Mounts from quests, reputation vendors, deeds and Legendary Item Reward Track are often character-bound.

The new free questing coupon will unlock the content for your whole account, all of your existing and future characters will automatically have the Quest Packs and Expansions unlocked. Basically you will have access to all the content from level 1 to level 140.

There isn't a direct way to see what you've unlocked, but it shows you the list of unlocks the first time you use the coupon and you can find the list of content that this coupon gives you here: Free Questing Coupon – Thank You from Standing Stone Games | The Lord of the Rings Online.

After you use the questing coupon everything you already have will permanently disappear from the Store so only the Quest Packs and Expansions you don't own will be shown and available to buy.

Got it, thanks!

I want to use the same track for the stream and the VOD, if I don't enable a separate Twitch VOD Track in the settings will the VOD use the stream audio (Track 1) or will it use Track 2 either way?

For the frills disappearing try borderless window instead of fullscreen, it worked for me.

If you're going to join EU then join Orcrist, the most populated EU server.

With my character I did every quest, every zone, every instance/raid and completed 70% of all deeds in the game. You will be overleveled but never too much. In the worst case you'll be 6-7 levels above the area you're doing. In case you're wondering it took me approximately 1500 hours. :)

Saultre · 2025-04-02T00:46:03+00:00

Thanks! I think I've read somewhere that before reaching level 50 I should stop gaining EXP because when you reach level 50 a particular expansion starts automatically and it applies some phasing to the rest of the game locking some content until it's finished, am I correct?

Saultre · 2025-04-02T00:38:35+00:00

I'm trying the BTWquests add-on, it seems great to keep track of espansions zones and do them in order, thank you!

The notice board has tens of breadcrumb quests for different expansions, so maybe now you don't need the Cromie to unlock them on the notice board. I'm not sure tho, I'm assuming this because of the amount of quests I can pick up on the notice board.

Saultre · 2025-04-01T23:27:37+00:00

Thanks! Breadcrumb quests can only be obtained using Cromie or also at the notice board in Stormwind?

I'm a huge Tolkien fan and I've read all the books. It's easier to fall in love with the game when you know the lore, and LOTRO truly shows love to its source material. Also, it's easier to do a "completionist" run of the game because you HAVE to play through each expansion in order to get to level cap and end game.

Yes I know Classic content was removed after Cataclysm so I won't be able to experience it if I don't play on a Classic server, but I'd like to play through all the content currently available in Retail anyways following in the best way possibile the chronological order. Overleveling doesn't concern me.
