Game is amazing and work extremely smoothly. At max setting you get 60 fps and 6hours of gaming on latest proton!
Base on how you want to play I made a few easy modifications:
- lowered mouse sensibility for track pad
- adjust the buttons so that the layout is more similar to a playstation controller
- if you are using the trackpad I recommend removing healing from trackpad because you will activate it without wanting to!
Text is very small, i recommende reducing the sound of the game instead so you can rely more on the voices instead of the subtitles;
No issue with save but note that the game does not support steam cloud save meaning you have to manually transfer your saves if you want play your same game on Desktop
Only noteworthy detail is that the controls take a bit of time to get use too but otherwise is a flawless experience right out of the box! Horror game Steamdeck supremacy!
Did a few quality of life tweaks after going directly to this game directly from F.E.A.R! A small note that sometimes when in game and tweaking controls, going back to the game using the official layout, you will get switch to the menu layout instead of the game layout for some reason. If you notice you can't move just go back to the layout and switch it over a few times to the in-game controls.
The game does not support Steam Cloud Save so be advice that you won't have your game carry over to your desktop!
Can't recommend the game enough, works like a charm and its such a good game. Another example of why Steamdeck is the horror supremacy device!
Flawless experience that feels much better than playing on switch and reminded me of when I use to play on Vita!
For anyone that it may concern, do NOT play with bluetooth device since this will create a audio lag in input making the game almost unplayable! Either play with the sound of your deck OR via the direct audio output :) i was a little sad thinking I just became worst overnight -_-'
Works perfect with everything max out at 6p fps and you get 5hours (if you are stubborn enough to play that much). Legit the best experience I had with Hatsune Miku since Vita!
Get 90FPS easy without tinkering on my Steamdeck, good enough for what is needed :)
2 chapters in, Repop in it's current state, is a fun experience but it's missing optimization and will get 30 FPS max during gameplay.
Latest version
I would say during gameplay this is less noticeable, but during the initial sequence there was a tone of artifacts and slow texture. I would blame it more on the side of the game been badly optimised.
Considerable slowdown after beginning the story (4 to 8 FPS) during the bike scene until you are able to control Juliette. Subsequent video are fine. Games runs at 27-28 FPS constant with 60fps in menus.
Only for the FPS but no crashes.
Optimization issue seems to be the main down point here. The game does not run very smoothly and doesn't have any options to modify graphic settings which in 2024 is insane. I tried running the game in lowered resolution and other Protons but nothing sadly made the experience better.
That being said 2 chapters in, the game is still very fun and at least to my experience less buggy than the ps3 emulated version. For 1hours of gameplay it drained around 40% of my LCD battery but lowering the FPS manually might make the instability between menu and gameplay more bearable for the batterie.
Maybe wait 1-2 weeks before jumping on the ship but I will leave this has a recommended for now just because it is playable and still fun. I will update this review down the line after a few more hours in.
