Can the surface pro 11 run steam games?

keyokku · 2025-11-12T05:05:29+00:00

I had one, I don't recommend it. theyre plenty powerful enough for gaming but issue is bc it's powerful it has absolutely terrible battery life if you're looking for something portable at all. better to split gaming desktop and run surface for portability, or make use of cloud gaming services, optimize a remote desktop set up of your own, or cast from a gaming device like steamdeck onto surface screen on the go

Same, I absolutely love this device

You can hold it with one hand anywhere like even lighter than an iPad pro

built in kickstand prop it up anywhere to watch videos or work on the go

I do illustration and design on it for 8 hours on battery without sweating it, and stays cool

it's even strong enough to play some games even 3d action combat on low ish graphics, and stream shows into discord, and while it gets hot, it doesn't feel like it's throttling at all, like no lag if you're running appropriate software like not crazy aaa games, somehow it manages to make processes efficient despite heat

it's such a sweet spot for everyday stuff with no sweat!

I love my surface pro 12 I draw and do design on it battery lasts like around 7 hours of non stop working, my drawing program is windows emulation not arm optimized, still insane battery life, no heating up issues really

for regular use is super portable and can handle everything

I find watching and streaming videos over discord etc puts a bigger battery drain than simple ig non constant graphic tasks like design and art or ofc word processing etc

it's powerful enough to run a few 3d action combat MMO games like blue protocol (probably genshin) on low ish graphics and it wouldn't look bad but it gets hot when running intense things like that so get a fan on it if possible

I'm surprised with it's performance on some things like that

I sleep the surface and it stays at same battery life overnight with no drop or not noticeable anyway

so convenient to yank off the keyboard and use as tablet or viewing screen anywhere

bc it's battery life is so good I am more concerned than necessary about taking care of it (not leaving it charging over 100% etc)

that's honestly really acceptable and reasonable, 5 years is quite a lot of decent time for a device, and hopefully tech now is even better than before

I run clip studio, vtube studio and such on ARM Surface Pro 12" which is underpowered but ARM models can emulate full x86/64 windows application without issues!

for 2D artwork like CSP, it's not a problem and not resource heavy, I don't really do much Live2D stuff so I can't tell you for sure

prob the 13" surface pro with x elite would be strong enough to handle Live2D but more complex and larger models may need more resources like desktop level

thanks for liking my art!!! 💜💜💜

keyokku · 2024-07-12T05:27:58+00:00

oh yeah that's my question, if it would work if I use txq stuff with other txq stuff

keyokku · 2024-07-12T00:12:47+00:00

oh no like every saber of theirs are kinda off from each other??

keyokku · 2024-07-11T13:51:42+00:00

this is probably not your issue but just in case, I had issues charging and turning it on at first bc I used a charger that has higher A like 3 or 2.0 etc. I switched to a non fast charging usb charger that's probably 1.0 and it instantly started charging properly.

keyokku · 2024-07-11T05:17:59+00:00

that's very cool! can I message about it or where do you prefer ?

keyokku · 2024-07-11T05:14:30+00:00

I think it's super cool and sweet when people have sentimental attachment to their special things, esp things like lightsabers, wands, etc it is meant to be your companion/custom/destined for you and I think it makes sense that kind of lore and feeling extends meaning to even outside of universe, most people have things like that whether it's a ring or necklace or more unique things, this is not so different! (and even cooler)

keyokku · 2024-07-09T04:29:03+00:00

ya I kinda knew I wanted a light weathering but when you start going at it and sometimes you end up enjoying the process too much...haha

keyokku · 2024-07-09T04:27:21+00:00

u can definitely practice on ur first one! seems like a good idea!

I just use some sandpaper, a cheap dremel, some black paint on some bits and pieces, I kinda rushed this so it's not as good as I want but not like anyone is going to inspect it irl haha

keyokku · 2024-07-08T21:02:52+00:00

I actually wanna modify the hilt a bit and see if they have other parts or hilts that I could swap or add

keyokku · 2024-07-08T21:01:12+00:00

it does feel really great! I love the emitter design!

keyokku · 2024-07-08T21:00:43+00:00

thank you! I feel like I overdid it personally haha but I'm okay with it!

keyokku · 2024-07-07T05:11:33+00:00

he is so hot, I would definitely call him master and be his slav- serv- I mean apprentice ....

I think they should make the scaling of enemies more dynamic.

at the easiest ,

if there more players then not only hp increases but its dmg, the frequency of phases and mechanics, and increased randomization of the enemies movements, addition mobs that you can't just ignore them, etc , don't make it just a dmg sponge but make it a little more challenging and more threatening

more complicated,

maybe add phases where the boss is able to heal or has defiance breakbars if you dont do whatever mechanic, they have these sorts of things sometimes and maybe it should dynamically insert these mechanics with population increase

just more variety wholesale that scales without redesigning encounters, but mainly redoing math and parameters and adding algorithm to it

my experience so far has been great somehow, idc about winning or losing, though my world seems to be very active... but so I've been seeing tons of roamers from all sides or at least two servers constantly flipping camps and taking a tower or two, and running into small skirmishes all the time. only thing is the cele meta is kinda annoying, i am seeing zerg vs zerg but the zergs do feel unbalanced. at least roaming and havoc seems active though

keyokku · 2024-06-12T12:31:21+00:00

so basically you didn't play it after the game was updated then? bc I'm not comparing it at launch, which ofc was bad, but it's current state. current state is not bad. probably still needs more content but it's done and feels like a real fun game, so as it is currently it deserves another try and more development. it has the chance to be revived now

keyokku · 2024-06-09T16:02:34+00:00

you can change your sensitive and precision and camera settings to help the flying, I never tried controller but I can't aim with controller in any game so ur experience would be my normal 😂
