      You play Helldivers 2 on the deck? What’s the performance like? I imagine, especially at higher level dificulties, the Deck must be struggling.

        I play on diff 7 mostly, I use the deck presets with the regular eye candy things turned off (motion blur, bloom, others) and average around 40 frames. It’s a worse experience than desktop (my gaming PC is pretty beefy and plays it at 4k/60fps native) but totally playable. Even at diff 10 it’s not that bad but with many things on screen and explosions and stuff I’ll drop down to about 30. I grew up on PlayStation 1 and N64 so I’m used to trash frame rates, if you have lower tolerance for that it might be frustrating but personally I don’t care.

          I also grew up with the first gameboy, nes and n64. But nowadays, especially for something like helldivers 2, the bare minimum for me is a constant 60fps.

          I was wondering because I tried to play Outward split screen on my friend’s TV and, even turning resolution and graphics way down, the Deck barely got to 40 FPS.
