How is that possible?
Playing Starfield on my desktop vs Steam deck is like night and day.
And I couldn't even get Cyberpunk 2077 to play correctly on Steam Deck. It's not just a graphics downgrade, but they remove extra NPCs like crowds. So it's just a near empty world.
I’m guessing the Deck is a lot of people’s only gaming PC. Much easier entry than a full blown gaming desktop. It may run far worse than a desktop, but it may be the only way to play for them.
As a kid I played Minecraft at the lowest draw distance (around 6 blocks) at 14 FPS. When it rained, I had to dig and hide because it would drop to 3 FPS.
Ocarina of Time was a game running at 240p and 20 FPS.
God knows at what frame rate the first PC games I've played ran at - considering it was a non-gaming hand me down PC, and I didn't know what the hell a frame was.
The point being, while better technical specs do make for a better experience... This isn't tied to fun.
FSR for Cyberpunk
I use Xbox Game pass streaming to play it on deck but I don’t think that would show in one of these surveys. Tried it locally installed and yeah it runs like shit on a stick
Yeah I would guess they just don't care. I have a nice PC but still found myself playing baldur's gate on it for a while due to it being in my hands and my ass being on the couch.
