Comment on [Game] Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Got Steam Deck Verified, But It Still Has Issues

I get it, more frames more better, and I agree.
But I don’t expect the steam deck to be a super performance machine. And personally, I am not that affected by 30fps. Below 30 it does start to bother me, and above 30 is significantly smoother.
I’m currently playing through HFW, and I can average about 40, it drops to 30 at times, and occasionally dips below, but by and large I’m very happy with it.

This debate often arises in the Steam Deck communities because a huge proportion of Steam Deck users are PC users that now have a handheld, so this transition is jarring.
For people that actually had handhelds before, that’s not only normal, but actually quite good.
Go play Xenoblade Chronicles on a 3DS, at 240p with an unstable 30 FPS. I loved it anyway. How about Doom 2016 on the Nintendo Switch? Hope you enjoy settings lower than low on PC, lots of missing textures, and a stuttery 25 FPS - still one of the highest rated games on the Nintendo Switch subreddit.
Handhelds make sacrifices for portability. 30 FPS is fine, it just won’t ever compete with your 1000w gigantic desktop PC.
