Plenty still to like about it! Are you thinking in terms of the power of the two systems you prefer the ROG Ally?

Hope you have a great time with it! (I’m sure you will)

That’s interesting I didn’t know there was a multiplayer mod for Witcher 3!

Hi again, 99% GPU usage isn’t necessarily a bad thing. You want to be getting full use of your GPU in a game like this. If it was 99% on a smaller scale game that might be something to think twice about but as long as your frame rate is okay I wouldn’t worry about high GPU usage

@@tomfinler thank you for replying man, day 1 with my OLED and was scared I could break it at 99% burn the hardware up lol, makes sense! Appreciate the videos will be watching more now that I own one

No problem! What other games are you thinking of picking up to play on Steam Deck?

@ playing the Witcher 3 and it looks crazy good! I want to play ghost runner 2 but it failed to work via the heroic launcher thing, starting campaign leads to a white screen with the audio. Oh well just messing around with games

Hope you enjoy it!

@ wooo thanks!

Thanks I’m glad you found it useful! Yeah I reckon it would look great in HDR

Yeah I think there is just so much going on at one time, there’s absolutely loads of things in one area and on the map and it all needs processing power I guess!

@ I’d wager the game is really hammering single thread performance. I very seldom see my CPU cores (Ryzen 5 7640HS) go much above 2.3 GHZ with power settings on Scrooge mode. But BG3 routinely send a core into the 4 GHz zone, which eats a disproportionate amount of power.

Thanks I’m glad you enjoyed it! Hope your controllers come quickly and you can have loads of fun with your PS3!

Thats cool, I’ve not played it on PlayStation but especially with the change between fist fights and speeding through the city with the bat mobile I’d have thought it would be noticeable that it’s at 30!

Thanks! I try to include different games that might go under the radar so I’m glad you enjoyed it and found a game you’re interested in! 😄

Hi Dave! I have always been curious about some of the more powerful handhelds (Rog Ally X, Lenovo Legion Go) but it’s felt like they can be a bit troublesome because of windows. They’re also pretty pricey 🤣 How are you enjoying yours? I’m pretty interested in the rumours of other handheld models that might start coming with SteamOS as standard because that would be a big plus for me

Hope you get some great bargains!

Hey thanks! Really kind of you to say

It’s really good! I’ve never tried it on a home console but I’m more than happy with how it runs on this handheld

@@tomfinler I played on base PS4 and it was a crappy 20 FPS experience xD

Yikes that sounds rough! 🤣

I wonder just how much work they put into optimising it for Steam Deck. . . Was it just of their normal processes or did a load of extra effort go into specifically this device

Hi! Not too sure, is it the Steam cloud that’s not syncing or something within the game?

Everything I did for the video was with mods off, I’ve actually not really done much modding on Steam Deck so far

@tomfinler doesn't the game have intergrated mods ?

Think I understand a bit better now - do you mean the toggle on the launcher? That was on for me by default and I left it on, but I didn’t then change or do anything else with mods, does that help?

@tomfinler yea

I’d heard that it was really hard to find genuine new ps3 controllers so that’s why I went second hand. It does have a great library!

No problem at all I’m glad you liked it! 😄

Hey thanks I really appreciate that!

Thanks I’m glad you found it useful! Will keep my fingers crossed for a sale 🤣

$26.69 US on fanatical right now

Yeah it’s a bit of a shame but I still like them overall!

Thank you! I’m glad you found it useful 😊

I’d love to but sadly I’m not really in a place where I can just buy all of the big new games on release, it’s very expensive! 😔 hopefully if the channel keeps growing I’ll be able to do new releases more often

@tomfinler np 😁

Thanks for clearing it up! It’s a shame that they don’t all just work 😔

​@@tomfinlerYeah, Modern Warfare 2 is the biggest offender of this, since it's one of the most played and beloved games in the COD franchise.

Hi! Thanks for your suggestion I don’t own Syndicate at the moment but I’ll put it on my wish list! What’s wrong with the game at the moment?

It’s shut down after Ubisoft logo

Haha that’s neat I’d never have thought to try that

Sweet thanks for recommending it!

Does the game launch if you just have a standard version of proton selected instead?

@@tomfinler No, it doesn't launch with any of the compatibility options applied on my side. I tried Proton 9.0-3, 8.0-5, 7.0-6, Ge-Proton9-19, Ge-Proton9-20 and DAI-Proton-1.0.4 but they all don't launch

I’ve tried doing a bit of research and it looks like a lot of people have the same problem with Inquisition using the Heroic Launcher. There’s been suggestions that a program called “Bottles” might help. I’ve never heard of it before so can’t say if it definitely will, but thought I’d pass on what I’ve found!

No problem! Steam Deck is good for a lot of games but some of the newer titles it struggles with

Hi! I think it’s best to get a second hand official controller if you can find one! Just watch out for fakes. I did a very specific search on eBay when I found mine, something like “official PlayStation 3 DualShock controller” if I am remembering right

I think with latest Firmware ps4 and ps5 will work. I could test, but I am too lazy.

I’m glad you found it again! 😀 the algorithm can be a little strange sometimes

@@tomfinler especially because I look up steam deck videos every day lol 🤣

You could be right! It’s been a little while since I played BG3 on Steam Deck I’d be curious to revisit it next year sometime and see what the performance is like now

Yeah the channel sort of went in a different direction in the end, but thanks for checking in! I did end up filling a few field notes, but then I got distracted by other notebooks which I think happens to a lot of people! 🤣

Is that a mod that introduces FSR 3.1 into the game? That’s cool!

GeForce Now? I’ve never tried that service but I am seeing more and more people using it with the Steam Deck. Do you recommend?

Absolutely if you have good network. Steam deck is great cloud device aswell. ​@@tomfinler

@@tomfinler definitely

Oh yeah that’s a good point about GTA6! There’s gonna be loads of players who don’t want to wait for the PC version

That’s strange, my Switch is sat in my OLED dock with these controllers on right now

@ mine fit in the old original dock, but not in the oled dock . I know I am not the only one

Hi, I don’t think I forced any specific version of proton, just left that setting alone when I played

@ Good to know, thanks! I ask because I typically set non verified Steam Deck games to Proton Experimental but sometimes when you change the version of proton, it messes up the game files.

No problem, glad I could help!

Hi! Thanks for commenting, I don’t use mine so much these days but that’s a great suggestion! Hopefully anyone that’s scrolling through the comments will see

Thanks for passing it on!

Oh sweet I’ll have a look, thanks!

It’s great to hear you had such a good experience with it! Thanks for sharing 😊

I scroll on Reddit yeah but don’t ever post anything on there if that’s what you mean?

@tomfinler check my subreddit SteamDeckUnlocked

Because of performance or just generally not a fan of the game?

@@tomfinlerbad writing and hamfisted identity politics

​@@gobblegobble7like what a pronoun 😂

@@Spencerwalker21 Taash’s entire character arch is being non-binary. Doesn’t get more ham fisted than that.

I’ve played it and disagree.

Thanks, you’ve been kind in your comments, appreciate it 😊
