I spent 24 hours playing on Valve’s new handheld, the Steam Deck, and tested 23 popular games to see how they run out-of-the-box on the portable gaming PC. To my surprise, several unverified titles run great on Steam Deck, while unfortunately, some iconic PC games run poorly. We tested top games like Ark: Survival Evolved, Cyberpunk 2077, DOTA 2, DOOM Eternal, Halo Infinite, Lost Ark, Skyrim Anniversary Edition, Rust, and Valheim.

20.08.2022Not a very good video for someone like me who's looking for facts. I can't see what settings you're playing on, I can't see the FPS displayed because you wanted to run the fancy depth of field effect with your recording camera during the gameplay.

17.08.2022I'm not surprised that Valheim doesn't run well. It doesn't seem to run well even on more powerful hardware. It frequently drops into the 30-40's with a Ryzen 2700x and RTX 2080Ti… :/

Chris Davis
16.08.2022The fact that the steamdeck can run a good amount of triple A title's better than its competitors that cost twice as much is impressive. I can't wait for spiderman (ps4/ps5) comes to pc I'm curious to see how that will run on steamdeck
ImperialAgent1992モッド
16.08.2022What about a fully modded skyrim se? will it run at solid 60 fps?
Radiobits 300
16.08.2022So you can sort of play games, casually. In other words it will be a novelty for two or three days then thrown in a cupboard and back to your desktop to actually play the games properly.
John Randall
16.08.2022Did they ever fix halo ?
Failed CC
16.08.2022did you try and launch ark in low memory mode? idk if thats even opinion.. just a question
mpforeverunlimited
16.08.2022As someone who loved the vita and never got a switch, this seems like the real next step. True generational leap over vita both in terms if functionality and power
BUDDY Stan VIVIZ
16.08.2022Imagine buying steam deck because you want to play farming sim games instead of these AAA games 😅
UKVATO

Heim Heim
14.08.2022Skyrim has always had a problem when it's loads something in.
The reason why no one remembers the constant crashing from vanilla is because we all now use the unofficial patch.
Now it just crashes due to 300 mods trying to load in lol.

14.08.2022Mad max is awesome on the deck. Very underrated open world game

14.08.2022Technology has come so far
The Badger
14.08.2022Tell me your video is sponsored without telling me your video is sponsored, this guy is not showing the fps counter for the majority of games and he's just saying that "the games run great", also how does Dark Souls Remastered "runs great"? did you see the frametime graph my dude?!!
DM G3
14.08.2022Reserved for a whole year now and they have still not sent me my email but people who ordered around the same time as me have. So dumb.

14.08.202215:10 Some people say controller on TF2 are terrible but this isn't true. They just have the wrong controller settings. You are not actually supposed to use the right analog stick (or even the trackpad), you are supposed to use motion controls which act like a mouse. There is a whole video explaining this on YouTube, I would recommend watching it if you want to play games as well as you would on pc but on controller
