        Interesting. I’ve held off buying it because I thought it was unplayable on the Deck. Maybe I need to give it a second look.

          If you have other ways to play a game, consider buying it regardless of the rating for the Steam Deck. Sometimes verified games update in a way that makes them way too hardware intensive, others might actually be playable regardless of what they say and the only real way to find out, is to try. For example, I wanted to try it so I setup Steam VR on the Deck, added ALVR, set it to minimum resolution and fps… I mean, Taskmaster VR worked. I had to make the resolution inside Steam VR all the way down, and it keeps a shaky 60 fps (doesn’t bother me, others could get motion sickness) but it was playable. Obviously it was docked, so 100% just curiously as on the other side of the desk there’s my actual gaming computer, but…

    Metaphor Refantazio is great outside of a few spots with fps dips, but the recent SteamOS update has helped with those a lot. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys JRPGs.
