I’ve been playing it on the Steam Deck (haven’t had a chance to play on the desktop yet as it’s currently extremely hot where I live so I’m huddled next to the aircon). And yes, it actually plays. Low frames in big cities but otherwise seemingly playable!
I love it. It’s more Skyrim than No Man’s Sky but I’ I’ve been playing Bethesda games since Redguard so I’m biased and a fan of their jank.
Nice! That’s good to know. I was actually waiting for feedback on how it runs on the steam deck before taking the plunge (since that’s where I’m planning to play it most of the time). As long as it’s playable, I think it should be good.
You’ll be playing it on low settings for everything and there are major frame drops in the big cities. But I’ve sunk around 8h in on the Deck and so has my partner. So far, so good. Only crash to desktop happened after resuming the Deck from sleep mid play.
Did you get a chance to try Starfield yet? I’m on the fence, at least until there are some performance fixes.

Only one crash to desktop so far…

Starfield is pretty good, but space is just the background. It’s not really much of a space game TBH. (I’m enjoying it though!)
Yeah, I’ve heard, and that’s a pity. It would’ve been great if it had Elite Dangerous type of space mechanics, but I guess we can’t have everything.
