Comment on Dark Souls 3 on external monitor

I play steam deck exclusively with an external monitor.
The monitor I use though is a bit unconventional. Xreal Air (Previously Nreal Air) - a pair of glasses.
It’s 1080p 60hz and looks like a large projector screen. Solidly crisp, comfortable with a couple adjustments: I’ve got 700+ hours of use out of them already and the only thing that seems like it might be crapping out is the USB C cable: which is just standard USB C 3.1

what kind of performance do you get from DS3 in 1080p?

I wasn’t playing DS3 but Elden Ring.
It was not the best performance but unchanged from using the main screen.
Lately I’ve been streaming from my gaming PC so I can play on the couch, which means I get amazing performance.
But the external monitor didn’t degrade performance meaningfully.

so you notice no difference in performance from playing on the deck screen in 1280x800 to the external monitor in 1080p?

No I didn’t. But honestly I can’t swear to the exact output resolution when I was playing.
