How is it on SteamDeck?
It runs very well. The control defaults are not impairing the gameplay too much. Being quite new with SD, I'm progressing slower than on PC with mouse and keyboard. Graphics are a bit fuzzy but I didn't tweak the settings and left them as per default.
pretty good actually if you use proton experimental: https://www.protondb.com/app/1086940
Solid. I'm playing it docked, so M&K and a 21" and not 7" screen, but the device runs it fairly well.
30-40 FPS in normal gameplay (without really having to turn the settings way down), running in native 800p upscaled to 1050p, and it really only chugs during a handful of cutscenes that have a trillion elements moving around in the background. I could probably worsen the graphics to get more FPS if I wanted, but this seems like a good balance. Very enjoyable experience so far.
