i don't think they realize that the steam deck is just another PC with slightly lesser specs. sure it's on par with consoles, but that doesn't mean it's treated like a console
It also probably doesn't deserve verified. It's playable, but I had to manually lower settings and use FSR.
But Larian aren't the ones who decide that so IDK what they're mad at Larian for. Do they want them to add traps so it crashes on Linux lol?
It's a slow, turn-based game. It's perfectly playable at 30 fps so no reason for it not to be verified.
It's supposed to work well on the out of the box settings to be verified. Manual adjustment shouldn't be higher than playable.
There's a lot of verified games you need to tweak to get running how you want, developers can make a "Steam Deck" profile and enable it to be used at startup but not all do. Also many devs save your graphics settings on Steam cloud which is quite annoying since you constantly have to switch them between desktop and Steam Deck.
The rules valve gave for verified is that it has to perform out of the box. The fact that they don't stick to that is a huge disservice.
It works out of the box for me idk what you’re upset about.
It works out of the box.
It just doesn’t work how you particularly want it to.
Worked out of the box for me.
You must be doing something weird then. I turned fsr off, capped it to 40 fps, and it looks and plays amazing.
FSR actually lowers performance for me. Try FSR off and anti aliasing on, looks and runs great for me.
