I'm playing Clair Obscura and it's running acceptably well by my standards.

The game hides some graphics settings on deck by default and uses a deck specific present. You can re-enable the settings by using the launch option SteamDeck=0 %command%, and customize it to your liking. I've been following this video's settings and have been pretty happy with the results. Basically it's TSR to low, shadow and post processing to low, film grain off, chromatica off, motion blur off, any other option to medium, FPS cap to 30.

Clair's default graphics on Deck are unbelievably ugly, doing the SteamDeck=0 thing is mandatory. I was never great with reaction games, so the slight framerate loss means I go from "missing counters 98% of the time" to "missing counters 98.2% of the time". I'll take that.

Thanks for the video. Looks pretty good to me. I'm usually more concerned about stable framerate even if it's 30fps. I'll probably pick it up this weekend now.
