Many are happy with the LCD still and don’t see a mid-generation (performance gain was negligible) screen-swap worth a few hundred additional dollars, but I’m very happy you do, and glad you are enjoying it!

Whatever happiness I experience while using my deck comes from the games themselves and being able to play them away from the desk, and next to my wife.

Black Desert regularly goes that cheap, I think they get most of their money off cosmetics/semi f2p.

Just wait for Christmas sale.

Just want to say as a fellow underappreciated dev; You rock and I appreciate the amount of effort you make, for free, with the simple purpose of improving your own gameplay and then sharing with us to do the same.

I am happy to see the benchmarks you provide alongside and have even in the early days validated some (Horizon Zero Dawn) having a significant impact (on my LCD Deck) on long term stutter and allowing me to enjoy the title entirely on deck. There’s literally nothing stopping people from playing stock, recording mango data, and then trying the tool themselves to compare.

Please ignore the detractors and keep it up.

Out of all the sorry excuses I’ve heard to upgrade to an OLED… This one isn’t that bad.

It does gets more performance when plugged in, but at that point I dunno why that’s really considered on a mobile gaming system

Nothing wrong with wanting what you want.

Its just a very specific use case (local in-home streaming), and arguably better options for said use case.

Agreed - more competition the better for us.

Highly recommended as well - awesome game, played it start to finish, all DLC entirely on deck at 40+ fps.

Sony and EA with their weak discounts. Lots of PC gamers aren’t going to bite for 10% off on a 95$ game when we routinely get 60-90%.

Wish I could help in regards to its performance, but I streamed it on gamepass cloud.

It at least *plays* very well with the controller/default setup.

I strongly considering buying Dave this sale - Pixel games are a bit harder for me to justify at 20% off only but the reviews are great.

A steam-link for Playstation getting 8/10 when its essentially a phone with controllers attached? Fair enough on steamdeck getting a 7 on first launch.

I have to assume when I see this sort of thing that they are not technical at all, or money has exchanged hands.
