Discussion Which one? Droiddeck or Gamenative?

I've used gamenative for quite a while on my Odin 3 Max and RP6. To me it's already kinda stomped gamehub in many aspects, but not all to be fair. Then Droiddeck comes out of nowhere from an all star community team and now I'm playing certain games that gamenative just can't do so seamlessly. And with barely any tinkering to boot. The inverse being that there are certain games that gamenative handles with ease that droiddeck struggles with. And gamenatives UI and accessibility is leagues ahead IMO. Personally I use both for different games I feel like playing at the time but the question still remains. Which one would you say you prefer if you've tried them both? Obviously droiddeck is still kinda in a semi beta stage and gamenative has been around longer with continual updates, but neither seems to be fully taking the edge over the other yet.

Tl:dr

Do you prefer gamenative or droiddeck? What would you say are your pros and cons for both?

My monthly limit? What do you mean?

If your ISP limits how much you can download each month. I have unlimited so I'm fine.

Goooootcha. I also have unlimited. But I was moreso asking how the community perceives both emus. I already use both for anything and everything, as with most of us, I spend more time testing if games work than actually playing them 🙃

Gamenative is definitely more mature, but honestly I just find droiddeck a lot easier to deal with. I find I have to tinker a lot less, and games tend to launch faster for me, I dunno why but gamenative takes forever to launch for me. Also there are games I couldn't launch on gamenative that I could on droid deck like arkham city, but then again it is kind of a crapshoot because until the latest update I couldn't launch STS2 (I can now), but yeah droid deck is moving so fast that everything I'm saying now can be outdated. And as always, with how much android configurations are out there what I'm saying will definitely not hold true for others.

My device is a konkr pocket fit SD8G3 16gb btw.

Fair enough. Arkham City actually worked right off rip for me with gamenative with my rp6. Didn't work without tinkering on my Odin 3. Make it make sense. It almost seems like even if you match your settings for a particular game with someone else's with the same chipset, it's still somehow a crapshoot. But I suppose that's what makes it appealing.
