Do you have a guide that you followed? Installed emudeck and got Last Odessy, but then I learned it's Xenia wasn't play ready.
I'm happy with it. I also mostly use ot as an emulatiom center and is awesome there. I also play a lpt of double A games, got Atelier Rorona recently and hope to play between desktop and deck depending on the moment of the day.
I don't have the Steam Deck but there's a fork of Xenia called Canary that has a bunch of patches that make RDR run really good on PC.
you're still paying for the mobile option with no upgradeability (=more expensive in the long run).
Ryzen 3600, any AM4 motherboard, 16gb DDR4 RAM and whatever graphics card you can reasonably afford. Bonus points if you get a motherboard with a M.2 slot but honestly there's barely any real time difference between that and a regular SSD.
May I ask what kind of average framerates do you get in Armadillo? On my PC when I'm in Armadillo it's about 40-50FPS with an i5-12400 and a GTX 1060 6GB at 1x rendering.
It's not a "fork" per se, but rather an experimental branch of the main Xenia project. This is a common software development concept, where the canary branch gets all the code updates as soon as they're made so they can be tested faster to make sure they can be safely merged with the master branch, and that's exactly what Xenia Canary is. It's a branch that gets all the latest code updates, and that also means it can get really buggy from version to version.
Yeah honestly I don't even like sacrificing the already low visual fidelity of the game for more FPS like that. The game already looks rough on the native 1x rendering, and dropping it down to 480p makes it look like this. So what if I have stable 60FPS when the game looks like shit?
PS2 and Wii U is no problem. For PS3 I am currently playing demon souls on my deck and the performance is quite good. The only problem I have with it is that the cpu will hit 90 degrees celsius which is a bit too toasty for my liking.
depends on your budget, how fast you want it and how long you wanna keep using it. if you play in 1080p that should be fine (and cheaper) for a while.
Just like how people parade their sexuality and mental illnesses. You got a guy here whose identifying personality trait is
That's surprisingly tempting for such a small discount. I really want to get it, but I told myself I wouldn't buy one until I finished all of my Switch games.
Why not just get one and emulate those switch games with yuzu on deck? Unless you need the online function like a Pokémon the offline play would be superior on steam deck.
He already owns the games and doesn't want to deal with any of the bullshit of emulation.
I'd say that's a good idea because in my experience my Switch is just a dust magnet because I'd rather play on the Deck and kill time with countless retro games and my Steam library which is just fucking huge because I subscribe to Humble Bundle feeling that paying $13 for several games a month is just affordable luxury.
