Just thought I'd share a thought I had. I love the Deck, super fun but thinking about the AAA titles being released it seems that maybe we're seeing the upper limits of what it's capable of. Jedi Survivor, whole optimized poorly, still has issues. Starfield will almost certainly run like other Bethesda games at launch and it seems BG3 is hampered with low FPS in certain areas.
We can't count on perfect optimization and low end CPU requirements. I'm thinking of seeing how Starfield runs when it's released and considering picking up an Ally depending on whether it looks like the Deck has the legs to play AAA games into 2024. That's more the type of gaming I like to do on the couch. I've been playing through CP2077 and NFS Heat.
Not everyone's cup of tea, I get that. Just thought I'd share my thoughts.
