I would make a review thread but it seems like reviewers just started playing, so there aren't many yet.

Have yet to try but I've read you need to turn on proton experimental for it to work. I've seen that people are getting roughly 30fps with medium settings and FRS. Also, the final release has gamepad support.

I'm probably going to give it a try later tonight and can update then if you're still interested.

Definitely interested, if you don't mind providing an update! I'm especially interested to hear how it plays on the gamepad. If it's not great I might just wait for a time when I can play on PC, but I'd love to jump on it on Deck if it turns out to be a fairly good experience!

Running pretty well for me 30-40 fps on mediumish settings. Gamepad works great. It also has cross save so I might pick it up later for ps5.

That's fantastic! Thanks!

Are you getting texture flickering? Flickering for lack of a better term.

Good framerate. Running on medium but does dropping to low help?

Nope. I am actually using ultra settings with a few of the options then turned down. I followed the instructions here: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/baldurs-gate-3-system-requirements-pc-performance-and-best-settings-to-use
