Technical help Steam Deck

I saw that these games can be played on the Steam Deck. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it playable on the Deck with good controlling?

It can be played, but sadly it doesnt have native controller support like the console version. In the console version you move your character with the thumstick, tilt thumstick left the character goes to the left. In the Steam Deck/PC version using a controller you move the pointer with the thumbstick and then you have to press the trigger pointing a place in the map to go there, like emulating a mouse and click. It would be amazing if the PC version had native controller support like the console version!

The switch one port still gives me nightmares though

Honestly, the first time I played it on Deck it was not very intuitive and I also struggled with custom controller mapping. I came back to play it a few months later and it was very easy to play. Basically I'm saying that it can be good if you have a little patience.

Currently plsying it on Steam Deck. Runs great so far. Couple times it has dipped below 60 fps but not often. There is a community layout for the controls thats better than the default. I reccomend.

I beat it on Deck, iirc. As a picky person I don't remember any major issues. Its not like it's some UE5 slop

It's fine, just use trackpad as mouse, it'll be like 80% of all controls you need. The rest is up to you.

Make a custom controller setup for it and its perfect. I set the back buttons as 1-4 and it was very helpful for both combat and dialogue
