Have you played since the 2nd patch in the last few days? From what I've heard it's a reasonable improvement but I haven't booted it up yet.
Comment on Top 20 Steam Deck games of August 2023, by hours played

Gotta assume those BG3 Steam Deck numbers are gonna tank as people get into acts 2 and 3. Act 1 runs quite well on deck, but no amount of low settings or disabled features provides an acceptable level of performance.

Yeah, I went back and tried it again yesterday, fully updated. I have no idea how anyone is getting 30 FPS on steam deck in act 3, unless they’re in the camp or something.

Yeah we played some today and still dip below 30 in act 2, so I'm guessing the final act is still in rough shape. Still managed to feel much smoother, though, so hopefully they continue the trend.

I’m on act 3. The performance level is acceptable to me. 30fps/1080p (docked) on low settings.
I’m having more bugged quest or game does not want to detect your mouse right now problems than graphics or performance ones.

There are bugged quests, glitched cameras and abruptly disappointed dialogue aplenty in the back half of the game, for sure. Mind sharing your complete game settings? And are you overclocking or something? I’m genuinely astounded by the performance you’re getting and would like to try to recreate.
